ABE NM Mission

The Association for Bilingual Education New Mexico is dedicated to supporting Bilingual Educators in their work and in their professional growth throughout the state of New Mexico. 

• We believe that Bilingual Education benefits all students — those who are learning English  as well as those who are learning other languages.     

• We recognize the importance of many different kinds of educators in the lives of New Mexico students: parents, extended family members, teachers, administrators, paraprofessionals and peers.

• NMABE embraces the rich cultural and linguistic diversity within our state and promotes its inclusion in the education of all students.                        

The association promotes educational excellence and equity through the creation of activities including advocacy, professional development and research.
