Describe the Organization's Program Activity:
Part 3 - Line 4a
PARENT ORGANIZING - PARENTS HAVE A UNIQUE AND CRITICAL ROLE IN IMPROVING PUBLIC SCHOOLS. INNOVATE PUBLIC SCHOOLS SUPPORTS PARENTS ACROSS THE BAY AREA AND LOS ANGELES TO BUILD ORGANIZATIONS IN THEIR COMMUNITIES THAT CAN SUCCESSFULLY ADVOCATE FOR BETTER SCHOOLS AND HOLD THE SYSTEM ACCOUNTABLE TO THE NEEDS OF THEIR CHILDREN. AS OF JUNE 30, 2022, THE ORGANIZATION HAS ACTIVE PARENT ORGANIZATIONS IN LOS ANGELES, SAN JOSE, REDWOOD CITY, EAST PALO ALTO AND SAN FRANCISCO. ALSO THIS FISCAL YEAR THE NATIONAL ORGANIZING TEAM SUPPORTED THREE URBAN LEAGUES IN CHARLESTON, JACKSONVILLE, AND CINCINNATI TO DEVELOP A PARENT-CENTERED ORGANZING STRATEGY AND EXECUTE AN ACTIONABLE CHANGE IN EDUCATION POLICY.
RESEARCH, POLICY & COMMUNICATION - THE ORGANIZATION PUBLISHES ACTIONABLE RESEARCH AND DATA ON SCHOOL QUALITY, DESIGNED TO SHOW THE URGENCY OF IMPROVING PUBLIC SCHOOLS, PARTICULARLY FOR HISTORICALLY UNDERSERVED STUDENTS. THROUGH PUBLIC EVENTS, WORKSHOPS, AND ONLINE RESOURCES, THE ORGANIZATION WORKS TO GET THIS RESEARCH AND DATA INTO THE HANDS OF PARENTS, PUBLIC OFFICIALS, BUSINESS LEADERS, SCHOOL LEADERS, AND LOCAL EDUCATION ADVOCATES.
SCHOOLS - THE ORGANIZATION'S MAJOR SCHOOL SUPPORT EFFORTS ARE THE SCHOOLS FELLOWSHIP PROGRAM. THE ORGANIZATION LAUNCHED THE FELLOWSHIP IN FALL 2013. THIS IS THE ORGANIZATION'S FLAGSHIP PROGRAM TO PREPARE SCHOOL LEADERSHIP TEAMS FROM BOTH DISTRICT AND NONPROFIT PUBLIC CHARTER SCHOOLS TO LEAD EXCELLENT PUBLIC SCHOOLS. THE FELLOWSHIP PROVIDES A HOLISTIC SET OF SUPPORTS TAILORED TO THE NEEDS OF EACH ORGANIZATION.
LOBBYING - THE LOBBYING EFFORTS AT THE STATE LEVEL HAVE BEEN PRIMARILY ON THE CALIFORNIA STATE BUDGET AND THE ALLOCATION OF INCREASED MONETARY INVESTMENTS IN THE STATE BUDGET TOWARDS EDUCATION RELATED ACTIVITIES, PARTICULARLY AS IT RELATES TO COVID RELIEF EFFORTS, LEARNING LOSS RECOVERY AND HIGH-QUALITY TUTORING. NONE OF THIS FUNDING WILL GO DIRECTLY TO INNOVATE.
