Massachusetts Family Institute is proud to announce the launch of the Massachusetts Education Resource Center (MERC), a new initiative designed to empower school committee members, educators, and parents with the resources they need to create learning environments that prioritize academic excellence, promote education over indoctrination, and uphold parental rights.
MERC brings together a team of experienced legal and educational professionals to offer policy development resources, professional training, and legal support to help school committees strengthen educational outcomes across the Commonwealth.

MERC is focused on three areas:
- Learning tools, such as articles and videos, that help school committee members better understand educational policy and best practices, enabling informed, effective decision-making.
- Model policies that support fairness, transparency, and strong academic standards, available to school committee members at no cost.
- Training resources, including structured professional development opportunities for school committee members, empowering them to lead with excellence.
In addition to these resources, we invite school committee members and education stakeholders to join our network to gain access to exclusive updates on new tools, upcoming training sessions, and expert insights. Members also receive priority access to personalized legal and strategy consultations for district-specific needs.
MERC is committed to delivering high-quality support to help local leaders enhance education for all communities across Massachusetts. We’re here to empower education stakeholders to make a difference in local schools and to keep education focused where it matters most: on students.
