Events

On December 11th, join education workers and parents at the Vietnam Memorial on the Capitol campus in Olympia for a rally and opportunities to talk with legislators.

State legislators are meeting in Olympia in early December, before the 2027 session begins, to prepare for the session and discuss preliminary decisions. It is critical we are there to make sure they understand why Parent Education is important and needs to be saved. 

In the session, lawmakers will be considering a budget that includes heavy cuts to address a projected $4-6 billion shortfall. However, the money for Parent Education has already been allocated to the State Board for Community and Technical Colleges, and it costs the state nothing to require it be spent on Parent Education.

Additionally, parenting has been recognized as a vocation for 80 years - deserving of support and recognition like any other.

This is our best chance to make sure legislators go into the session understanding the importance, impact, and value of Parent Education.

For planning purposes, event organizers are asking that you register for the event here.
