Out of many, one! Together, we number 3 million members across the country. That's 310,000 just in California from nearly 1,100 chapters. At the same time, it all comes down to you. As a member-driven organization, you decide, well, everything! From the trainings CTA offers to what we fight for at the Capitol, you steer CTA's course. Every member has a voice. CTA's organization ensures that every member has a voice and a vote in determining our union's values, goals and leaders. CTA members just like you built, maintain and enhance this structure to advocate for, support and defend the public schools our students deserve, and focus on the needs of educators working hard to make a difference in classrooms. This is what it means to be member-driven.
