LEV Foundation educates communities, policymakers, and families with research-driven educational practices and policies so they can advocate for high-quality, fully funded, and equitable public education for each and every Washington State student. Through our levinars, podcasts, and other platforms, LEV Foundation participated in and amplified important discussions happenings around student supports and school funding issues, especially as it relates to student mental health, advancing educator diversity, and student discipline practices. LEV Foundation also worked with and published guest blogs written by the legislative Youth Advisory Council (LYAC) about the need for inclusive education in schools. Through our field work, we continued convening a legislative working table centered on and interrupting the school-to-prison pipeline. We will continue to prioritize and the importance of fostering safe learning environments and providing student supports.

LEV Foundation serves as one of the go-to resources for the general public and policymakers, including the media, legislators, state education agencies, and communities across Washington State, our research-based, community-driven policy recommendations come from deep engagement in Washington across multiple stakeholder sectors including community-based organizations, families, practitioners, and school districts. LEV Foundation worked in partnership with open doors for multicultural families, tree house, and the Arc of King County to improve student outcomes. In 2023, LEV Foundation worked toward system change in a number of ways, including engaging in advocacy with the State Office of the Superintendent of Public Instruction (OSPI) and the Washington State Board of Education (SBE) to provide more supports for students who receive special education services and to develop a statewide school climate survey.
