What We Do
• Our Educational Opportunity Programs provide nurturing learning environments for children that prepare them to succeed academically and in their future careers. Serving children from 1 year to 12th grade, these programs address opportunity gaps and support growth.
• Our Economic Advancement Programs remove barriers and disparities that can make it difficult for adults in the Greater Pittsburgh community to achieve self-sufficiency. These programs provide resources that help individuals and families overcome economic challenges and build long-term stability.
• Central to our mission is the work of the Center for Race & Gender Equity, which provides workshops, organizes impactful events, supports systems change efforts, and builds a strong community centered on the vision of a world where everyone, regardless of background, can enjoy equitable access to personal and professional opportunities.
