Updated: State Policy Maker Contact Lists
In light of the most recent election cycle and AACTE’s commitment to having its members and state affiliates remain connected with officials in their respective states, we have updated the lists of contact information on our website for each state’s policy makers (member login required). Contacts include that of the governor, chief school officer, relevant legislature committees, and education agency staff.
As a reminder, the contact lists are intended to help you foster and maintain ties with these officials while likewise broadening the scope of your state advocacy activities, particularly as policy makers assess teacher preparation programs, consider changes to program approval and licensure, or otherwise take actions that are likely to affect your work. We encourage you to refer to these lists in order to reach out to officials to provide input on policy and regulation both on the state and program level.
AACTE will update the lists periodically, but please let us know (at agoldstein@aacte.org or (202) 478-4504) if you notice your state’s information needs to be updated.
Not sure how to initiate contact with your officials? Visit the AACTE Advocacy Center for pointers and browse our advocacy guides available for download here.
