Resources for Parents and Teachers


Mr. Rights

AIUSA's Urgent Action program offers numerous materials and resources to parents, teachers, and youth who use the AIUSA AIKids' and Literacy Edition Urgent Actions, Special Focus Cases, and Summer/Holiday Card Actions. We will be adding more resources to this page, so please check back regularly.

Many of the materials we offer are not yet available online, so if you are interested in receiving a free packet, including the "Teacher's Guide: Children Can Be Human Rights Activists Too" and the AIKids' letter writing guide, or if you would like posters, books or videos to share with a class or library, please contact Julia Nemon at the Urgent Action office (information below).
