Overview

Families Invested in Reforming Education (FIRE) Fellowship

FIRE, Families Invested in Reforming Education aims to bring together like-minded individuals to better the quality of education in their community and the state.

Each session will be conducted virtually at regularly times for the cohort.

* Attend at least seven out of the eight training sessions (each session will be a 1-hour to 1 ½ hour-long training session)
* Have a strong passion for advocacy and improving education
