Kids Can't Learn If They are Hungry

“You don’t know what timing you have. I have two kids, one in elementary school and one in middle school, and I didn’t know how I was going to feed them. I only have 3 cans of food in the house and my food stamps weren’t coming in for 2 and a half weeks.” —parent of a child in the Weekend Backpack Food Program

Our goal is to help Durham Public Schools reduce the annual dropout rate by 50% in 5 years. To achieve this ambitious goal, we are initiating several new programs including:

  • Durham’s Performance Learning Center — an innovative, nontraditional high school at Northgate Mall designed to help students graduate on time
  • Incredible Years Program — a research-based program helping children learn prosocial skills
