Advocacy is at the core of MABE. MABE prides itself on being a strong advocate for quality dual language education and bilingual programming for students, families, and educators. Advocacy can be seen when we participate in advisory councils, when we work on changing state legislation, guidance and policy, and when we present at conferences. Advocacy is seen everyday by our students and families when they interact with you in your classrooms and schools. Find more details in each state's page. NATIONAL COALITIONS & PARTNERSHIPS
EMMA is a “consortium” of members committed to the strengthening and expansion of quality dual language educator preparation guided by the National DLE Teacher Preparation Standards (The Standards). MABE is a consortium member working with the EMMA Advisory to anchor, design and deliver professional development and guidance for in-service dual language teachers that aligns with and informs the standards.
