CCEA actively advocates for school employees at the bargaining table, at the worksite when assistance is needed to work through issues with Administrators and at the state level lobbying for laws that protect your rights and securing salary dollars.
CCEA is a professional organization bringing the voices of teachers and support professionals together, so we can be heard and respected. Our strength is in our numbers.
