Join an EPiC Parent Collective!

EPiC Parent Collectives are spaces designed to grow, develop, and support Black parent leaders by bringing together caregivers and community members to connect, learn, and engage around issues that impact children’s educational experiences, including special education practices, discipline approaches, and access to resources. Through shared learning, relationship-building, and reflection, Collectives help parents strengthen their leadership, deepen understanding of school systems, and explore ways to contribute to improvements that support students who are sometimes marginalized and their families. Joining an EPiC Collective does not require having all the answers; it is an invitation into a supportive, collaborative space where lived experience, care, and collective growth guide the work over time.
