As a Member of the Board, I support the evolution and execution of the organization's strategic direction, support fundraising activities and event sponsorship, act as a public spokesperson on behalf of of the organization and represent CEAM to other individuals, organizations, and governmental entities.CEAM educates and engages parents, business and civic leaders, educators and the general public in education policy reform efforts in Missouri. CEAM supports effective schools of all kinds and believes all Missouri students deserve access to a quality education, now.Based in St. Louis, CEAM was founded in 2006. Working mostly with loaned staff and volunteers initially, the organization received capacity building support in 2011 that allowed for a dedicated staff of four. Today the organization receives support from a number of donors including a major foundation grant and hundreds of individual donors, many of whom gather each year when the organization celebrates the Champion of Education Reform Award.CEAM is building a statewide network of support for education policy reform. We do this through live events, community and parent engagement, e-mail news, social media, and awareness campaigns.CEAM pays particular attention to parents through our program called Parents for Progress, which provides valuable training focused on policy change and communication. While many groups have an organized voice, parents frequently are not an organized voice in education policy change. CEAM helps parents find a seat at the policy making table by facilitating constituent meetings with elected officials, a policy watchdog effort, testifying at hearings and other opportunities.
