About Us:
The Title V National Steering Committee is an organization dedicated to furthering the goals of the Title V program of No Child Left Behind, and the Improving America's Schools Act of 1994.  The Committee seeks to accomplish this through active advocacy for children in alliance with various interested constituencies
and implementation of the results of this advocacy through the targets of the Title V program in all 50 states and United States territories.  The Title V National Steering Committee is composed of representatives of state departments of education from all 50 states and territories.  The committee meets bi-annually, with the spring meeting convening in Washington, DC in order to discuss and take action on pending congressional legislation, and also to update the membership on changes in US Department of Education programs.  Staff from the Office of Elementary and Secondary Education (OESE) at the US Department of Education are always in attendance, and provide the majority of speakers for the conference.  Speakers from other constituencies such as the Committee for Education Funding (CEF) and the US Catholic Conference are typically in attendance also.  Additionally, new members of the committee receive a short orientation as to the mission of the Title V National Steering Committee.  

Typically, the spring meetings of the committee contain a full schedule of presentations by representatives of different constituent groups mentioned above, briefings from congressional staffers on issues pertinent to Title V, and demonstrations from committee members showing examples of the application of
the Title V program in their respective state, i.e. electronic grant applications, etc.
