Local Affiliates

Local affiliates advocate for their members and public education by respectively shaping and supporting the goals of OEA and NEA.

Locals advance the educational and civic interests of the community, raise the standard of the education profession, cultivate a spirit of cooperation and unity among its members, and promote the mutual professional and material interests of members.

In doing so they each form a representative body to speak with authority and create in the community at large a deeper sense of worth of the education profession and of the importance of the interests which it represents.

As of January 2024, OEA is comprised of 744 local affiliates. Many, but not all, maintain a website and/or social media presence. Each OEA Local is alphabetically listed within the tabs below.
