to limit recruiter access to students during school hours, including changing policies that once allowed recruiters to regularly pull students out of class for lunch meetings. In November 2005, ACLU of Southern California stated that they were providing assistance to CAMS to determine the scope of military recruiting efforts on public school campuses by filing a Freedom of Information Act request to all branches of the military. CAMS is also working to eliminate Section 9528 from the federal No Child Left Behind Act. This section allows military recruiters to visit public schools and funnels student information to military recruiters. Other CAMS works closely with the teachers union United Teachers Los Angeles. CAMS is currently at work on a non-military job training and placement directory for youth called Project Great Futures. CAMS was awarded the Season of Nonviolence LA Award presented by Agape International Spiritual Center in 2005, the California Teachers Association Human Rights Award in 2006, and the Office of the Americas Lotie Wexlar Peace and Justice Award in 2006.
