EPiC Programs

Circle of Hope

Parent Support Group

  • Our Circles of Hope are support groups for parents/caregivers that focus on parent wellness, stress management, and navigating the educational system.

Empowered Families

Listening Sessions & Community Forums

  • Our Listening Sessions are a place where we gather community members together to hear about their lived experiences as it relates to education and systemic inequities. 
  • Our Community Forums with educators, parents and students bring those with lived experience together to offer parent-led solutions that address data driven inequities found within a school or school system. 

Community Building

Collectives & Consultation/Training

  • Our Collectives are groups of parents/caregivers who focus on a specific advocacy issue. EPiC  holds space to pull parents together with the same areas of interest to close the opportunity gap and work toward advocacy together
  • Our Consultation and Training is one in which we use data-driven outcomes with the focus on systemic inequities to equip families and caregivers to advocate for high-quality educational opportunities.
