Let’s Get This Conversation Started
Strategies, Tools, Examples and Resources to Help States Engage with Stakeholders to Develop and Implement their ESSA Plans

Client: Council of Chief State School Officers

The Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) is an opportunity for states to not only connect with current education advocates, but to seek out those who feel disconnected or who have not been historically engaged in a public education dialogue. Education First worked with the Council of Chief State School Officers and 15 national advocacy and civil rights groups to create this stakeholder engagement guide to help states develop meaningful ESSA engagement strategies. The guide contains 10 specific steps with detailed guidance on how best to connect with, speak to and learn from stakeholders with a unique perspective. It also includes an array of state-based examples of these strategies in action, stakeholder-specific tactics, planning tools, federal engagement requirements, a getting started checklist and a list of additional stakeholder engagement resources.
