Making a Difference for Education Support Professionals (ESPs)
ESPs are key members of our public schools because they are usually the first people students see when they enter the school. They’re there when a student needs a listening ear or a helping hand. ESPs are on the front lines in every school system through-out the state, keeping our schools running and our students safe, healthy and ready to learn.
WVEA can make a difference for you:
- Tough and effective representation in grievances and other issues.
- Savings and financial tools to stretch your hard-earned pay.
- Liability insurance which includes on-the-job $1 million per-incident protection.
- Collective action and advocacy to enhance your pay and working conditions.
