@RebeccaSibilia and the @EdFundNews team are building a new initiative focused on bridging the gap between school finance research & policy. What should advocates know about funding public schools? Share here: surveymonkey.com/r/X93P3HF #edpolicyhotlist #edpolicy #newtables #edfi

We're just getting started, but check out the first phase of our website: ed-fund.org

Friends working in education advocacy - we've got a survey in the field this week to get a sense of what you need from the research community in order to be more effective in the state capitol. It's only 6 minutes of your day - your insight is critical. surveymonkey.com/r/X93P3HF

In case you can't tell, something big is coming soon from our new initiative EdFund. Follow @EdFundNews to stay tuned, and in the meantime: @RebeccaSibilia @phylliswjordan @jbmcgee @Ericka_Weathers @BarbaraBiasi @chriscandel @JasonBaron4 @jennschiess @eduKATEmatters

Are you an education advocate? If so, take a few minutes to complete our @EdFundNews survey. We're hoping to fund and support school finance research that gives policymakers and advocates the answers they need.
