Juntos, podemos criar um futuro mais brilhante para todos os estudantes.

Como pais, todos queremos o melhor para nossos filhos, incluindo uma educação de qualidade que os prepare para o sucesso.

Infelizmente, o sistema educacional nem sempre é justo e equitativo, com algumas crianças tendo mais acesso a recursos e oportunidades do que outras. Isso afeta a todos, pois limita o potencial de nossos filhos e pode levar a resultados negativos, como taxas de graduação mais baixas e menos oportunidades de carreira.

CPLAN (Collaborative Parent Leadership Action Network) is a parent-led organization dedicated to putting families at the heart of school decision-making.

Founded in 2016 in Boston by parents determined to drive change, we are led by parents of color and have grown into a statewide community of over 1,000 partners—including parents, educators, school leaders, and policy advocates.

We empower parents to champion their children’s academic success and build a brighter future through informed leadership and active engagement with schools. By emphasizing local control and measurable outcomes, CPLAN ensures that real voices from our communities shape the education system for the better.

Parental Rights & Local Control

CPLAN ensures parents have the knowledge and tools to take an active role in shaping education at the local level, advocating for policies that reflect their values and priorities.

Transparency & Accountability

Our workshops empower parents to work with schools and districts to ensure every dollar is spent effectively and every policy benefits students.

Student Success & Workforce Readiness

We equip parents with the skills to advocate for high academic standards and career readiness, ensuring students have access to the skills they need to succeed in a competitive economy.

Family- Centered Values

CPLAN supports families in navigating school choice options and ensuring their children receive the education that aligns with their needs and values.
