NEA REPRESENTATIVE ASSEMBLY
The 2025 NEA-RA will be in Denver, CO July 3 – 7, 2026, with approximate arrival/departure dates of July 2 and July 8.
The NEA/RA is an amazing assembly where members of NEA from all over the country gather together and through democratic process, using Robert’s Rules of Order, determine the policies of our national organization. It is the largest democratic body in our nation. If elected to represent your colleagues at the NEA/RA you will be required to attend all California caucuses, which begin at 7:00 am, and all sessions of the full NEA body, meeting until the conclusion of all business items on the last day of the assembly. There are countless other caucuses and meetings to get involved in if you choose. Please click here to see the SCTA policy on delegate requirements. You may also find more information online at: RA.NEA.org.
The total number of delegate positions is TBD; the number of SCTA funded positions and amount of funding is TBD pending CTA notification. The Delegate positions will be decided in the order of the number of votes received for each candidate.
Candidacy Forms, photos and statements are due to the SCTA office by 5:00 p.m., Tuesday, February 3, 2026. (Postmarked date not acceptable.) Please follow directions carefully.
