The National Network Opposing the Militarization of Youth (NNOMY)

One good way to affect the scope of recruiting and degree of militarism in K-12 schools is to focus campaigns on school and school district policies. This can mean appealing for administrative controls at the local school site level, or seeking broader action by district superintendents and governing boards.

Another approach is to seek passage of local laws or ordinances that can regulate recruiting in schools and the rest of the community.

Here are some recommended links available to better inform you as an in dealing with school boards. This is a work in progress and NNOMY will be adding new documents as they are prepared and as policies change that effect enlistment. Check back periodically.
