The 2025 CFT Convention in San Diego last weekend was an opportunity for hundreds of delegates and guests from across the state to come together, connect, and strategize about how to take on the enormous challenges facing our schools and our country.

The three-day event included a mix of great speakers, thought-provoking workshops, the election for CFT officers, and debate on critical policy issues. CFT members got to hear inspiring words from AFT President Randi Weingarten, California Federation of Labor Unions President Lorena Gonzalez, and nationally-recognized immigration advocate Marielena Hincapié, among others.
