Affiliates are geographically-based associations of teachers or preservice teachers of English language arts, literacy, and English studies. Look to your local affiliate for professional development opportunities, electronic and face-to-face networks, print and online publications, and, most importantly, the collected wisdom of many of the best teachers in the field.
