The Redwood Educators Conference is a vital opportunity for educators from chapters across the Redwood Service Center Council to come together, connect, and strengthen our union at a time when public education is constantly under attack. Building on the energy and unity of past gatherings, where hundreds of educators engaged in workshops on coalition building, action planning, and collective empowerment under themes like “Our Unity Is Our Strength,” this year’s conference is focused on Building Resilience and Solidarity. Over April 24–25, 2026 in Santa Rosa, attendees will learn new strategies, share experiences, and lean in to support one another as we confront the challenges facing our classrooms and communities. This is more than professional development. It is a space for renewal, shared learning, and collective strength so that we leave energized and ready to make a difference back home.
