YRO Local Interest Application

ISTA is currently searching for local affiliates interested in participating in the 2025-26 Year-Round Organizing program. Through this program, member organizers and local leaders will receive rigorous training and support to develop and implement a year-round membership plan with assistance from ISTA and NEA staff.

ISTA will select up to 12 locals to participate in the coming year, so submitting this form does not guarantee a local will be selected to participate. ISTA will contact each local to meet and discuss the program once a form is received.
