The Coalition of Community-Based Language Schools is a nationwide initiative established to support, guide, and promote the interests of community-based heritage language schools and organizations across the United States. Our main goals are to:
- Facilitate communication among community-based heritage language schools/programs
- Develop official statistics on HL teaching and learning by collecting comprehensive data about community-based schools and press for inclusion of these data in official U.S. education statistics
- Increase the visibility and recognition of these schools/programs within the U.S. education system on local, state, and national levels
