Who We Are & What we do?

Supporting
Every Parent, Educating Every Child

Kinship and Community:

We believe in the power of kinship networks and community-driven efforts. Our work is rooted in the understanding that culturally rich and historically resilient communities have long been a source of strength and advocacy.

Equity and Access:

We are committed to ensuring that all children, particularly those in communities facing systemic challenges, have access to quality education and opportunities that allow them to reach their full potential.

Parent Advocacy:

Parents are their children’s most powerful advocates. We provide the tools, support, and education needed to ensure parents can confidently navigate the education system on behalf of their children.

Collaboration:

We recognize that change cannot happen in isolation. By partnering with families, schools, and community organizations, we build networks of support that address educational and societal challenges.

At Urban Parent to Parent, we don’t just provide services; we connect families to existing efforts within their communities. Our approach centers on strengthening the kinship networks that are already in place, recognizing that the answers often lie within the communities themselves.

We help families navigate complex systems—whether it’s the education system, healthcare, or housing—without handing them over to systems they struggle to navigate. We also work to ensure that parents’ voices are centered in decision-making processes that affect their children’s education. Our efforts focus on advocating for shared decision-making and ensuring that parents are seen as vital stakeholders in the education system.

We touch dozens of lives of everyday parents making real differences to people’s healthcare, housing and children advocacy. Here are a few stats:
