Remarkable work is taking place across New Mexico to meet and support K-12 students’ basic needs and to provide them with authentic opportunities that improve their educational and professional outcomes. We invite you to explore the map, learn who is doing the work, and reach out to collaborate with leading partners throughout the state.
Additionally, the Innovation Zones Initiative created a Youth Council, which works closely with the other two groups to ensure that youth voice and leadership are reflected in our state’s efforts to transform the high school experience, while creating new college and career pathway opportunities for all students. The Youth Council is facilitated by our partner Future Focused Education. To learn more or to apply to serve on the Council, click here (link coming soon!)
