Our Mission
We are a group of concerned Camden parents, caregivers and guardians that work diligently advocating for better education, safer schools, equal funding, maximum resources and inclusion in any decisions that are made for our children’s education. The CPU would like to see the quality of urban public education be given the same opportunity as suburban education and corporate charter education. CPU will continue to educate, empower and organize the parents of Camden, New Jersey and be a voice for and advancing the traditional public schools of Camden, NJ.
Is a youth led organization of Camden, NJ public school students from grades 9th-12th. CSU was established in 2013-14 by a group of courageous students that was fed up with the way that their voice were overlooked in the process for better education for the Camden City School District. The students meet monthly with the Camden Parent Union to seek advice and to organize for issues that they deem as important. They also travel nationally and provide the students voice in many conferences and protest. The CSU single handedly have been the heroes for public education in Camden, NJ.

Special Announcement
Attention Camden City Parents:
Camden City Schools are facing a major budget crisis, with a $91 million shortfall for next school year. This means over 100 staff layoffs, school changes, and cuts that will directly affect our children’s education and safety.
A parent meeting is being held soon to explain what’s happening and hear from families like yours. It’s important that every parent shows up, asks questions, and shares concerns. Your voice matters in the decisions being made about our traditional public schools.
Let’s stand together for our children’s future.
