Child Well-being & Education

An overview of our work on Oklahoma education

Educating our children is the biggest responsibility that we entrust to our state and local governments. Nevertheless, Oklahoma struggled to fund common education and higher education to meet what’s needed for all kids to have access to a quality education and for our state to have a highly-skilled workforce. We promote policies to adequately fund our education system and advance evidence-based strategies to reach all Oklahoma children.
