"Parents are looking for clarity and some good solid advice on how to take some action.  NEAT's role is to summarize the issues and help us understand how we fit into that in a positive, proactive way."

NEAT Action Planning Assembly, March 2004

How we fit in a positive, proactive way is the essence of advocating for our children. These models are offered to help us think about and understand how we all play a role in ensuring the best-possible education for our children.
