AFC работает над изменением политики в области образования, чтобы система государственных школ служила все детей эффективно. Мы публикуем отчеты о политике и анализ данных, даем показания на уровне города и штата, выступаем в прессе, чтобы привлечь внимание к проблемам, с которыми сталкиваются учащиеся и семьи, которым мы служим, и присоединяемся к другим правозащитникам, родителям, молодежи и преподавателям, чтобы призвать к изменять.
