This week, we are gathering in Minnesota to celebrate JP families and alumni during our annual summit weekend! The programming is designed to engage moms with resources and tools they can use as they craft the futures they want for themselves and their families. ?? Swipe to see highlights from last year's summit!

What is the JP sisterhood? The sisterhood is a supportive and restorative community that allows moms to engage with other women experiencing similar challenges and celebrate their successes. This sisterhood is not just a bond — it’s a force for change.

Family coaching is the centerpiece of the JP experience, providing moms with guidance and support through each stage of economic mobility. A mom and coach may: - Create an education plan, deciding on a school and major - Develop stronger habits for time and money management - Develop a resume, LinkedIn page, and networking pitch - Craft a set of family goals, like afterschool tutoring and summer enrichment

Postsecondary education is the most consistent lever for economic mobility. However, student parents encounter barriers that can hinder their ability to complete their degree. To help single mothers benefit from obtaining postsecondary degrees, it is essential to make educational opportunities and affordable child care more accessible.

JP is crafting a vision of what’s possible for every single mom and her family in their pursuit of economic mobility. ??

Congrats to JP board member Kadia Tubman, who was recently awarded Babson College's Martin Luther King Jr. Leadership Award! She is truly a champion for women and moms. ?? https://lnkd.in/eHrsRGiG

Moms are often defined by one label: “mom.” When we limit women to their capacity to raise children, we erase their dreams and diminish their endeavors outside the home. This is especially the case with single moms. It’s time to recognize and support single moms’ full potential as leaders, professionals, and more.

This is the benefits cliff in action. JP Alumni Fellow Stasia speaks about her experience as a student parent navigating the social safety net that often perpetuates poverty.
