Issues and causes the Network supports
- The Network’s 14 Guiding Principles
- Adequate and Equitable Education: The Kentucky Student Voice Team believes “(t)he legacy of the Rose vs. Council for Better Education case that promised an adequate public education has wilted, and we’re suing to revive it.” Read the legal complaint at https://www.ksvt.org/rose.
- Support for the Arts: Kentucky takes great pride in its artists and arts organizations and rightfully so, but Teresa Day, who’s on the Kentuckians for the Arts board, shared some very alarming statistics about state arts funding. She encourages arts supporters to visit their legislators on February 13, armed with information from their website https://kyforthearts.org/ and https://kyforthearts.org/Advocacy.
