The Student Advocacy Center of Michigan is a non-profit organization that has been dedicated to fighting injustice in the educational system since 1975. They work alongside students and parents to ensure that every student in grades K-12 has access to a quality education, regardless of any barriers they may face. Through their advocacy and support, they help students stand up for their rights when they are suspended, expelled, denied special education support, or subjected to racism or other forms of discrimination at school.
The Student Advocacy Center of Michigan believes that every student deserves the opportunity to succeed and that dropping out of school should not be an option. They understand the long-term consequences of not graduating from high school, such as increased risk of poverty, unemployment, poor health, and incarceration. By providing guidance and assistance, they empower students to stay in school and create the future they desire. Their work aims to address disparities in school discipline, special education, homelessness, immigrant education, and other areas to ensure that all students receive a fair and equitable education.
