About Our Organization
Our Story
We started as a small number of parents exchanging ideas on how to navigate the educational system of Aurora and Denver Public Schools. As we met new parents, we recognized that the challenges faced by Black students were similar throughout the Front Range and Colorado. Thus, we decided to form a network of parents who articulated their needs and willingness to work together as a group to address those needs.
