Are you troubled by frequent recruiter visits, ASVAB
testing or JROTC in your schools? Are you having difficulty gaining
equal school access to counter military recruiting? This workshop covers
ways that activists have successfully approached these problems at the
policy level. It’s been done in some of the largest school districts in
the country (e.g., NY City, L.A., Chicago, San Diego), and at the state
level in some cases. The policy approach is another powerful tool that
can be useful for having an impact beyond individual school visits. The
presentation reviews successful methods as well as some of the
challenges organizers have encountered.
