Activities or mission (Part I)
PARENTS CHALLENGE DISRUPTS THE LEGACY OF EDUCATIONAL FAILURE (CONTINUED ON SCH O)(CONTINUED) BY EMPOWERING PARENTS. WE EQUIP FAMILIES WITH INFORMATION, TRAINING, MENTORING, TOOLS, AND FINANCIAL RESOURCES SO THEY CAN CHOOSE THE EDUCATION THEY BELIEVE IS BEST FOR THEIR CHILDREN.
-
DURING THE 2024 - 2025 SCHOOL YEAR, WE IMPACTED 195 FAMILIES AND SUPPORTED 356 SCHOLARS. THROUGH OUR PROGRAMS, PARENTS ARE NOT ONLY GIVEN A VOICE, THEY ARE EQUIPPED TO MAKE INFORMED DECISIONS THAT DIRECTLY INFLUENCE THEIR CHILDREN'S ACADEMIC SUCCESS. THIS EMPOWERMENT IS A CRITICAL STEP IN MOVING AT-RISK STUDENTS FROM CHALLENGING CIRCUMSTANCES INTO LIVES MARKED BY CONFIDENCE, ACHIEVEMENT, AND LONG-TERM STABILITY.
Expenses $968,566 · Grants $569,390
-
THROUGH OUR EXPANDED EFFORTS, WE HAVE STRENGTHENED OUR ROLE AS BOTH AN INFORMATIONAL RESOURCE FOR ALL FAMILIES AND A FINANCIAL RESOURCE FOR THOSE IN LOW SOCIO-ECONOMIC CIRCUMSTANCES. OUR TARGETED SUPPORTS, INCLUDING TUTORING AND BRAIN INTEGRATION, HAVE LED TO MEASURABLE ACADEMIC GAINS, WITH MANY STUDENTS DEMONSTRATING MEANINGFUL PROGRESS IN READING AND MATH. THESE INTERVENTIONS ARE HELPING BREAK DOWN LONG-STANDING BARRIERS TO ACHIEVEMENT AND CREATING REAL MOMENTUM FOR STUDENT SUCCESS.
-
IN ADDITION, FAMILIES HAVE INCREASINGLY PRIORITIZED THEIR CHILDREN'S SOCIAL-EMOTIONAL AND MENTAL HEALTH. PARENTS CHALLENGE HAS RESPONDED BY PROVIDING GUIDANCE, RESOURCES, AND DIRECT SUPPORT, ENABLING FAMILIES TO TAKE PROACTIVE STEPS IN ADDRESSING THESE NEEDS. AS A RESULT, FAMILIES ARE MORE ENGAGED, BETTER INFORMED, AND MORE CONFIDENT IN ADVOCATING FOR THEIR CHILDREN'S OVERALL WELL-BEING AND ACADEMIC FUTURE.
