Description:
The time to take action is now! Check out the tools and resources: https://coabe.org/faces-of-adult-education/
As you prepare for your activities, reach out to your state association, and don’t forget to connect with staff in your state’s adult education office. While they cannot advocate, they can provide valuable data and insights about adult education in your state—information that can strengthen your message and highlight local impact.
