Policymakers (e.g. Mayors, City Councils, School Boards, Governors, State Legislators, County Boards & Executives, U.S. Senators and House Representatives) play a key role in making sure that they are policies at the Federal, State, and Local levels to support community schools.  At the community level, you, as a policymaker, have the authority to support a vision of learning. You can also help develop mutually beneficial relationships among other policymakers and school & community leaders.

Some of the benefits in advocating for community schools at the policy level are:

• More efficient & effective use of taxpayer dollars
• Easier access to needed services
