Affordable healthcare is essential for educators and their families. No one should have to worry about the financial strain a diagnosis or a premium will cause. When public schools are fully funded, students, educators and communities have the chance to be physically, mentally and emotionally healthy.
Healthcare is a right for all — both students and educators.
When communities come together to invest in their educators, rising insurance premiums become less of an individual burden.
The research is clear: the more we invest in our children’s education, the better health outcomes they will have as adults.
Ensuring children can build healthy relationships, practice empathy and manage emotions — through social and emotional learning (SEL) — supports mental health.
