About North Carolina Association of Educators

The North Carolina Association of Educators is the state’s largest membership organization of and by public school employees. We are teachers, custodians, instructional assistants, student support service staff, bus drivers and more, who work every day to provide students care, learning and opportunities to help ensure they meet their full potential. We are building a movement to defend and transform public education in our state. We've led the largest educator mobilization in state history and mobilized thousands of voters across the state to the polls. Our locals have fought for and won historic pay increases for custodians and other staff and harnessed the momentum from those wins to propel themselves into ranking among the fastest-growing National Education Association affiliates in the country.

We're on the cusp of restoring North Carolina as a national leader in education policy and are making moves from the Sandhills to the mountains to win the schools our students deserve.
