Teach Plus is a national nonprofit whose mission is to empower excellent, experienced, and diverse teachers to take leadership over key policy and practice issues that advance equity, opportunity, and student access. At the heart of our work is developing teacher leadership and voice in pursuit of student success. We believe that investing in our most talented teachers—developing them into well-informed, persuasive leaders—gives them deep leverage in elevating the most pressing education issues facing students, teachers, and communities while advancing opportunities and outcomes for students. Through our Policy Fellowship and Instructional Leadership programs, we inspire and equip teachers to ignite systems change at multiple levels.
