Eagle Forum Education Center was established in St. Louis, Missouri in 1993 as the national headquarters and resource center of Eagle Forum Education & Legal Defense Fund. The building at 7800 Bonhomme Avenue in Clayton, a St. Louis suburb just west of Washington University/St. Louis, is visible evidence of the permanent life and vitality of this unique foundation and think-tank. The Education Center serves the public through publications, conferences, leadership training seminars, video documentaries, and radio programs.
 | Ruth Reynolds is Executive Director of the Center. She also serves as Coordinator of local House Meetings. |
 |
Blake McGowan is our Eagle Forum Collegians Director.
Eagle Forum Collegians Summit has been held annually in Washington, D.C. for 16 years to give college students the chance to meet and hear from national leaders. |
 | Eagle Forum University posts free courses on topics such as American history and the Supreme Court to take at your own pace. 8,300 have already taken these courses.
|
| The Center is the headquarters for two radio series. The Phyllis Schlafly Report, 3- minute daily commentaries, have been running since 1983 and are now carried by 550 stations. Eagle Forum Live, a one-hour live call-in show about education has been running since 1989 and is now heard on 75 stations. Both are streamed on the Internet. |
 | The Education Reporter has been published monthly since 1986, reporting news about curriculum and other education issues that seldom make the national press. |
 |
Historians who have evaluated our archives call them "a unique and extraordinarily rich" collection of publications, DVDs, CDs, files, correspondence, personal papers, and unpublished manuscripts that offer "important insight into the conservative movement of the second half of the 20th century, its ideology and its activists."
|
 | The Center houses two personal libraries, each containing about 5,000 books. One was donated by Phyllis Schlafly, the other by Rosalind Kress Haley. |
 | Eagle Forum began offering Literacy Programs in 1981 for disadvantaged children. They have been directed by Dr. Shirley Curry, Ph.D., former official in the U.S. Department of Education, and by Dr. Frances Shands Baker, Ph,D., former Associate Professor of Education at St. Louis University.
