This is what 1000+ UMD grad workers demanding recognition looks and sounds like. We will do whatever it takes to get livable wages, protections for international students, and other necessary improvements for grad worker conditions. Fair contract now, or we'll shut it down!

Take a look at my new OpEd on the negative impacts to youth of dismantling the US Dept. of Education, & the importance of access to quality public education for my own family #EducationMatters #KnowledgeIsPower @ChildrensRights

Abolishing the U.S. Department of Education would be devastating for our kids and eliminate more than $5 billion for our local schools. New York Republicans in Congress: stand up and fight for our kids — or get out of the way.

Mandated reporters themselves are uncovering the realities of mandated reporting laws, which punish families for needing support or seeking resources.

Every child deserves love, belonging & the chance to dream. 💛 But too many are needlessly torn from their families & placed in systems that shatter their safety & stability. This #GivingTuesday, help us fight back against injustice. Join the movement: childrensrights.org/givingtu…

When we support caregivers, we are supporting their ability to care for the young children in their lives. Learn more about how we can work across policy sectors to create environments that support caregivers and young children: bit.ly/3ZtjEWK

Had a great time at the @mothersoutreach event w/ @ShereenEsq & @ShantaTrivedi learning about the Mother Up Guaranteed Income Research Pilot in DC. Excited for their future findings & hope to see these types of programs expand, to help families stay together. @ChildrensRights

Qualitative researchers: can you share your opinions / insights on using 1:1 interviews versus focus groups? Especially in the context of working with Black fathers? Thank you! #qualitative #research #Blackfathers
