Partnership for Educational Justice is a nonprofit organization pursuing educational equity through legal action to improve the quality of public schools.

The Challenge 

All our children deserve to attend great public schools that can prepare them for success in college and in life. But unjust laws and regulations are keeping millions of children across the country from getting the education they deserve. All too often, children who need great schools the most—those who grow up in low-income communities—are least likely to have them. And in many cities and states, political leaders have been unwilling or unable to fix the policies that are holding our schools and our children back.

The Solution

Students and their families deserve better, and they deserve to have their voices heard. Partnership for Educational Justice helps communities advocate for common-sense policy changes that will give more students a chance to attend great schools. When advocacy isn’t enough, we help those communities seek justice directly from the nation’s courts.
