More About The Program

Justice In Education (JIE) provides the platform needed to transform impassioned local youth into vital members of our effective statewide advocacy efforts asserting that access to quality public education is a fundamental right for students in Pennsylvania. Young people know what is at stake and are the subject experts of what they need. As part of Children First, JIE will educate and collaborate with students to determine how they can transfer their ideas into action through civil engagement, creating a meaningful, equitable, and sustainable impact on PA school funding and the quality of education for all youth.
