Contract Action Team (CAT) Leads & Organizing Committee
The Anchorage Education Association (AEA) has established a Contract Action Team (CAT) Leads & Organizing Committee to strengthen the Association’s capacity to engage members and leaders throughout the bargaining process.
This committee is responsible for mobilizing, activating, and engaging members to support both internal and external relationships that advance AEA’s strategic priorities. Its work will focus on building sustainable systems of member involvement to recruit, retain, and develop a diverse and effective leadership network within the Association.
Through coordinated organizing efforts, the CAT Leads & Organizing Committee will ensure that AEA members remain informed, connected, and unified in their advocacy. By doing so, the Association enhances its ability to achieve a fair and competitive contract that supports the retention of certificated educators and reflects the professional value they bring to Anchorage’s students and community.
AEA members stand together in solidarity for a contract that strengthens our schools, supports our educators, and upholds the standards of excellence our students deserve.
