I am adding a national campaign to the Early Childhood section of the website although it could be applied to Adolescence and Educators as well. It is associated with the Economic Policy Institute and is called the Broader, BOLDER Approach to Education (BBA). The BBA is described as “a national campaign that acknowledges the impact of social and economic disadvantage on schools and students and proposes evidence-based policies to improve schools and remedy conditions that limit many children’s readiness to learn.”
The BBA provides an extensive bibliography of research related to students and schools, and they promote and share principles in regards to Early Childhood Education, Comprehensive Strategies, and School Improvement. There is much more to explore on this website and they share recent news features, like the September 12th, Politico article by Nirvi Shah entitled “Race to the Top for Education a Flop, Report Finds.”
Every state is represented. It is easy to learn about the programs affecting individual states.
