Disrupting the cycle of poverty for single mothers and their children two generations at a time.

Our holistic approach begins with establishing a supportive community for single mothers to pursue a career-track, college education. Through a combination of quality early childhood education, access to affordable housing, and empowerment and life skills training.

JP’s nonresidential models partner with ACLC Tutoring to provide virtual afterschool academic support. Their work not only helps JP kids advance academically but also gives moms – who are also students – extra time to focus on their studies.

“It was no longer just about me. I now had a passenger on the journey: a 2-year-old who depended on me for guidance, support, and safety.”

Last week, we gathered for community conversations with JP President and CEO Chastity Lord and the Urban Institute’s Elaine Waxman in both Jeremiah Program Boston and Jeremiah Program Brooklyn to discuss the ways in which public policy either embraces or excludes families — because it is never neutral. We look forward to more of these powerful conversations throughout the fall as we work collectively to create conditions for all families to thrive. We hope you’ll join us.

A special thank you to our sponsors, Fondation Chanel and Share Our Strength’s No Kid Hungry, for making this possible.

It’s back-to-school season for JP moms and kids! This time of year reminds us of the power of investing in a mother AND her children. When an entire family thrives, we redefine what is possible for generations to come. 💜

A mom’s ability to lead begins with wellness.

Increased access to mental health services, preventive care, support for common women's health conditions, and maternal health support are critical to the physical and emotional well-being of single mothers.

Stable housing is a basic need and a springboard for education, employment, and leadership.

Stronger renter protections, expanded access to rental assistance, and pathways to first-time homeownership for single mothers are policies that will ensure more single mothers and their families can access safe and affordable housing.

JP moms know that education remains the most proven key to economic mobility for both generations, mom and child. This Student Parent Month, we couldn’t be prouder to celebrate their strength — and that of all student parents.
