Educational Advocacy

Advancing state-level action

We collaborate with communities, education leaders and coalitions to make news literacy a graduation requirement in more states across the country. Our strategic support includes coalition building, public education, expert testimony and hands-on help with implementation — always within our 501(c)(3) guidelines. Partner with us to make news literacy education a priority in your state and ensure every student graduates prepared for the digital age. Together, we can create a lasting social impact.

Our collaborative approach

Empowering educators and policymakers to make news literacy a graduation requirement.

Coalition building: We bring together school districts, community groups and local leaders to build momentum around shared goals. By uniting diverse stakeholders, we create powerful advocacy networks that drive meaningful policy change.

Strategic advocacy support: We support coalition members in informing legislators and the public about why news literacy matters. Our role includes building partnerships, guiding coalitions, helping them raise awareness and providing proven strategies that build support for news literacy initiatives.

Authoritative expertise: We provide expert testimony and insight on the benefits of news literacy education. Our voice lends authority to policy discussions. Our work stays fully within 501(c)(3) guidelines: We never meet with elected officials without coalition members present, and we never endorse or oppose specific legislation.

Implementation excellence: Once a state takes action, we provide resources, training and hands-on support to help states roll out news literacy instruction effectively. We ensure a seamless transition from policy to practice with comprehensive assistance.

Together, we’re not just teaching news literacy — we’re building the next generation of informed and engaged citizens.
