		Home > About NMABE > NMABE Strategic Plan NMABE Strategic Plan Mission Statement The mission of NMABE, a diverse, dedicated community of education stakeholders, is to foster, encourage, and promote bilingualism for all children in an environment that nurtures the rich cultural and linguistic diversity of the state through advocacy, professional development, networking and current research application and dissemination. NMABE believes that Bilingualism is an asset to be encouraged and promoted. Languages, cultures and heritages should be preserved, maintained and developed for all people in New Mexico. Respect for all languages and acceptance of diversity is essential for a healthy society. The teaching and learning of languages is vital for the education of all children. The most important tool for learning is the language(s) that the child brings to school. Focused professional development for stakeholders is vital for lifelong learning, understanding and growth.
