Parents

Our Target Population

Low-income and economically disadvantaged Spanish-speaking parents, mostly immigrants, with low levels of education. Their children attend Title 1 schools that have a majority of Hispanic populations. They will probably be the first ones in the family pursuing a college education. We focus on mothers because they are the ones in the family who take their children to school, attend school meetings, and get involved in their education. Even though some mothers speak English, they prefer Spanish when talking to their children. Fathers are welcome to our program, but they rarely join because they are the breadwinners.
