What does Dignity in Schools Campaign do?

Dignity in Schools Campaign (DSC) is a national coalition challenging "school pushout" and the school-to-prison pipeline. We bring together parents, youth, educators, and advocates to build power and transform communities. Our mission is to replace zero-tolerance policies with alternatives that foster healing and dignity. We fight racism and other forms of oppression to ensure every young person has the right to a quality education. Through direct action, policy advocacy, and leadership development, we are creating a public school system that is safe, nurturing, and prioritizes the well-being of all students. We empower communities to be key decision-makers and advocate for a system that provides equitable resources and culturally relevant education for all.
