Member Communications: Keeping You Connected

AESA offers four distinct electronic publications as well as our Federal Updates blog designed to keep members informed, engaged, and connected. These communications provide valuable updates, insights, and resources tailored specifically for educational service agencies (ESAs).

 

This weekly digital newsletter is delivered directly to members’ inboxes. It provides timely updates about AESA’s events, federal advocacy efforts, and highlights of innovative work by our members and business partners.

 

Published through 2025, this archive reflects a dedicated platform for research and best practices supporting ESAs. The publication featured articles exploring innovative practices, public-private partnerships, and research relevant to the field, and served as a forum for thought leadership and ideas advancing the work of ESAs nationwide.

 

 

Each month, this comprehensive report is provided to keep members informed about the latest state-level education policies and trends. It includes legislative updates, funding news, and curated articles from across all 50 states. It also offers actionable advocacy tips, empowering members to become informed and effective advocates for education within their states.

 

Published bi-monthly, this newsletter connects members with a wide range of learning opportunities available through AESA, fellow ESAs, and our business partners.
