There are so many amazing initiatives this month and while they are all worth a shoutout, this Legal Lens episode focuses on Teacher Appreciation. I’m sure we can all agree that teachers play a key role in our society. That is why in this Legal Lens Show we are looking at some of the challenges our educators are facing & the latest policy updates that impact their work.

Helping us bring light to this subject are two amazing ladies, Cecily Myart-Cruz - UTLA President & Erika Jones - Member of the California Teachers Association Board of Directors.

We had a lot to talk about!
