CTW Hosts March 11, 2010 GED Stakeholders Meeting

Wednesday, May 19th, 2010

The CTW is convening New York City GED stakeholders to build on the current public momentum for GED reform and start developing a shared GED advocacy agenda from the ground up. We envision this first meeting as a chance to a) come together as a coalition of NYC GED providers/advocates; b) identify the range of issues and initial priority areas; and c) begin to shape a consensus-driven advocacy campaign for GED reform.  This meeting will be a key step in launching a broad campaign to bring more public attention to the GED and build support for system improvement.
