The ESP Quality Department
Who We Are
Education Support Professionals are the fastest growing constituency group within the membership of the National Educational Association. The NEA Education Support Professional Quality (ESPQ) department exists to improve the work lives of NEA’s nearly half-million ESP members. We advocate for national policies that benefit ESPs, assist state affiliates with ESP organizing and retention, provide professional development resources and supports, and leadership training for ESP members.
