Take Action

Email your lawmakers!

For decades, Oregon has strived to create a public school system where every student thrives. An inclusive school system means that students experiencing disability are provided with access to a full range of special education (SpEd) services and are included in general education classrooms, with schools and educators who can meet their needs, as often as possible  

However, SpEd funding in Oregon has not kept up with the growing needs of our students. The result is that SpEd programs and supports in Oregon are now underfunded by about $700m per biennium. 

HB 2953 would help fix this! Write to your lawmaker today and let them know that you support HB 2953, and that they should too!
