Democrats for Education Reform

Democrats for Education Reform (DFER) is a national education advocacy organization. Our mission is to ensure that the Democratic Party, consistent with its progressive values, pursues education policies that enable all students, particularly students from low-income families and students of color, to obtain a globally competitive education that empowers them to fulfill their limitless potential. To do that, we will build a durable network of Democratic champions, allies, and supporters across the political and policymaking arenas to expand what works and change what is broken in the public education system, with the interests of students and families at the center of everything we do.
