Mission and programs · 2025

Mission

To advocate for improved educational experiences through collective organizing and intentional engagement of parents/caregivers, ensuring students thrive and achieve better outcomes.

  • EPiCs Parent Engagement program equips families to become active partners in their childrens education. Through listening sessions, authentic engagement opportunities, parent education workshops, and in-school volunteer roles, parents build the knowledge and confidence to navigate the school system and advocate for stronger educational outcomes for their children. The program also provides targeted support to families of children with learning differences, helping them build capacity, access information, and advocate effectively within special education systems.

    Expenses $196,213 · Revenue $300,374

  • Circle of Hope provides peer support cohorts - separate Circles for mothers and fathers - that strengthen emotional wellness, family relationships, and community connection among parents and caregivers. Facilitated multi-week sessions build peer trust, communication skills, and leadership capacity, helping parents better navigate challenges at home and advocate for their children. Participants consistently report increased confidence in their relationships with their children and a strong sense of connection and belonging within the group.

    Expenses $74,243 · Revenue $113,655

  • EPiCs Early Childhood Education program promotes equitable access to high-quality early learning for our youngest and most vulnerable students. The program works to disrupt inequitable suspension and expulsion practices in early childcare and education settings, helping ensure that young children - particularly those most at risk of exclusionary discipline - remain engaged in learning environments that support their long-term success.

    Expenses $259,849 · Revenue $397,793

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
