Math and reading scores for America’s 9-year-olds fell dramatically during the first two years of the pandemic, according to the U.S. Education Department. “Students in 2022 are performing at a level last seen two decades ago.

If you’re a young professional in southeastern PA and care about improving children’s lives, join us for a social meet-and-greet. We want to know what you’re passionate about and how we can help you help kids.

We don’t appreciate the value of care work [child care and nursing home workers, aides to people with disabilities]…Who does this care work? Women and people of color. We diminish the value of care work in our society entirely too much.”
