Generation All Archived Resources
Generation All - Archived Resources
Generation All, one of our ally organizations, closed on March 31, 2019. For more information, please read their farewell letter here. Generation All’s work focused on elevating Chicago’s neighborhood high schools, and they advocated for many of the same education reforms that Raise Your Hand supports. Generation All created many resources that are valuable to education advocacy in Chicago; while Generation All as an organization is closing, we want to ensure that these resources remain accessible. So, we are excited to host these resources on our own website to help keep this work going!
