Teachers Unite

Teachers Unite is an independent membership organization of public school educators in New York City collaborating with youth and parents to transform the city's and the nation’s public schools.

We resist institutions that segregate and criminalize Black and Latino/a youth, such as the school-to-prison pipeline, by organizing educators to work as allies in local and national campaigns for social and economic justice.

We develop and share resources for restorative justice and school-based power-building that promote grassroots leadership in public education, and we conduct collaborativeresearch on pressing educational issues.

We believe that schools can only be transformed when educators work with and learn from parents and youth to achieve social and economic justice.
