LOS ANGELES, CA – The Los Angeles Unified School District Board of Education will vote on an upcoming resolution, “Parent Package: LAUSD as an Equitable Employer of Choice for Thriving Families,” to support employees who are planning, building, and raising families. The resolution sets the stage for LAUSD to become a model, family-supportive employer by enhancing family leave, reproductive health access, lactation accommodations, child care assistance, and long-term planning for working parents.
This transformative initiative, introduced by Board Member Tanya Ortiz Franklin, acknowledges the critical link between thriving employees and thriving students. If adopted, it would position LAUSD as a national leader in equitable family benefits, setting a precedent for public school systems across the country.
