Our Mission To improve the health and safety of the school community by developing and disseminating information and programs that educate and empower school professionals and positively impact the lives of students
How we achieve our mission • Training at conferences • Organizing for change • Creating publications that answer questions • Providing online courses • Responding to members
Who are the NEA members? • 3.2 million education members • 75% female • 2,000,000 classroom teachers • 500,000 Education Support Professionals
Program • 250 kits • 50 free • 200 at a discount • 2 web surveys
Questions • Will members request the kit? • Who orders the kit? • Will this create additional demand? • What happens when the discounts are expired? • Will members use the kit?
Questions • How is the kit used? • What else would be useful? • What other arthritis management activities are they doing? • What is their overall rating?
Timeline • Program announced: week of September 27 • First orders received • Marketing push in October • Follow-up is at five and ten weeks from receiving kit (this may be tweaked) • Report by February 15, 2011 • Additional report after that
