Partners in POWER!

An aspect of our organization devoted to building dynamic networks
working towards the same goals and vision of LANM and moving together with collective
power. Below are the coalitions and collectives we are currently a part of.

Transform Education New Mexico

In a landmark court decision, a judge ruled that New Mexico is violating the constitutional rights of students to a sufficient education (Yazzie/Martinez lawsuit). The court ordered the state to take immediate steps to fix our schools and fully support low-income, Native American, Hispanic, English language learner, and special needs students. Transform Education NM is a coalition of education, tribal and community leaders advancing a new vision for our public education system in New Mexico, following this landmark decision.

​

Families United for Education

A collective of individuals and organizations focused on educational success in Albuquerque with a focus on anti racist educational practices and implementation of ethnic studies in schools. This group also aims to shorten the distance between parents, teachers, students, and community and Albuquerque Public Schools leadership and school board. 

​

Anti- Racist Youth Leadership Institute Collective 

A group of organizations and coalitions that have developed an ever evolving summer institute for young people in the Albuquerque and surrounding areas that offers educational spaces for young people to learn about racism and systemic oppression as well as to have conversations about the impact those have on them, their community, their ancestors, and their future decedents as well as how we can break the cycle by unlearning socialized mindsets and behaviors brought on by racism and systemic oppression and chose to actively live an anti- racist life. In addition to youth specific anti- racism curriculum, this group also provides anti- racism workshops to organizations or groups that request it as well.
