Sharing Our Admiration<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As we continue reflecting on this election season, we want to recognize the inspiring dedication of Zulema Gomez, our Director of Implementation, who recently ran a campaign for her local school board in California. As a non-partisan organization, we have not previously commented on her campaign to avoid any appearance of endorsement. Now that the race is over, we are thrilled to share our admiration for Zulema\u2019s hard work, unwavering commitment, and dedication to engaging parent voices in every step of her campaign.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Grassroots Campaign Rooted in Integrity<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Right from the start, Zulema ran a truly inspiring grassroots campaign, marked by positivity and a strong commitment to integrity. Throughout her campaign, she engaged directly with local parents and families, centering their voices and listening to their needs, all while upholding a standard of fairness and respect in her campaign that never resorted to divisive tactics or negativity. In a time when public discourse tends to be divisive, Zulema\u2019s approach demonstrated our mutual values which include fostering positive change through respectful, community-focused leadership.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Zulema’s Legacy as a Parent Leader<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Zulema is a parent leader in her family, advocating for equity and opportunity for her child and others in her community. Her campaign now joins a legacy of parent leaders in the NPLI family who have run for school boards, state legislatures, and other public offices, demonstrating the power of parent leaders to drive meaningful change for children and families. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Importance of Everyday Civic Engagement<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

With the results of this election, we are reminded that now more than ever, achieving the goals of democracy requires communities and parent leaders to engage in civic life\u2014not only during election time but throughout the year. Democracy is happening every day, in the choices we make, the voices we uplift, and the actions we take together for a brighter future. This ongoing participation is vital for creating inclusive communities where every voice matters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
