About the Organization

Mission

We dismantle systemic racial inequities in the education system through collective organizing and intentional engagement of Black parents, caregivers, and communities. We empower people to advocate for high quality educational opportunities and the equitable distribution of resources within schools

Services

We understand and support parents' mental health through our Circle of Hope program in an effort to build parent capacity, share resources and support each other to do the work that lies ahead in disrupting systemic racial inequities in education.

We bridge home and school through creating a safe space to hear from parents/caregivers lived experiences and organize and empower parents/caregivers to collectively advocate for a common goal - high quality, culturally competent education for Black children so they can thrive.

We bring parents, caregivers and community members together across the community to build on shared values, share educational concerns and resources, and learn to advocate for Black children at the school and district levels.
