Brightlane Learning 25 years ago, Brightlane began with a simple belief: every child has the right to an education.

Now, we're building on 25 years of experience as we continue to address the problem of childhood homelessness with the transformative power of education.

Let’s learn together as Education Director Jen Meeks shows us how to help students regulate, relate, and reason!

When someone is emotionally dysregulated, stressed, or anxious, they cannot use the smartest part of their brain to make rational decisions.

Jen and Brady are here to walk us through an example of how we can help students first regulate their emotions so we can then relate to and reason with them. This helps students increase their learning capacity and boost their confidence!

Two year grant funding from the Iaaqli is helping stabilize our direct service to student and families across our 30+ Indianapolis locations.

Thanks in part to this generous financial support, Brightlane Learning’s programs continue to meet every student exactly where they need as we work together to help students build grade level skills, be promoted to the next grade, and graduate.

During a time when education funding is shifting, financial support that ensures program stability for under-resourced schools and students navigating homelessness and housing instability is critically important. Thank you Indianapolis African-American Quality Of Life Initiative for investing in comprehensive literacy development for all ages and closing the racial academic achievement gap through this grant funding.

Building positive connections and relationships with students makes all the difference!

Education Support Coordinator Alyssa shared, “I saw a new student for the first time last week. When I got her from class she didn't know who I was and she looked tired/down. As soon I mentioned I was with Brightlane, she lit up and said, ‘I used to work with Mrs. Jen from Brightlane at my old school!’ She was so engaged and excited to work with our program again. I love that students carry such a positive experience from our program with them.”
