It’s thanks to organizations like the Yass Prize that our children are going to have a better tomorrow.

I don’t think I’ve been in a room as supportive as the Yass Prize Semifinalist room in Miami.

When we originally applied, we simply provided supplemental support services to homeschooling families. Now, we are growing into an education network that provides community, coaching, and curriculum nationwide.

Not only because of the capital, but because of the knowledge that comes by communing with the diverse group of people as opposed to everybody that thinks the exact same way that you might think.

focusing on what we know is important for kids really works, and having a network of people now that also agree was super huge.

in innovators who are doing this type of transformational work, so that others can learn from it and replicate it, so that you can actually grow yourselves.

from all different demographics, all different states, all different service provider types that you can learn from.

The Yass Prize has empowered our youth, families and community by bringing great visibility to our efforts.

It has helped me raise the ceiling on what’s possible.

going against the common core and focusing on what we know is important for kids really works, and having a network of people now that also agree was super huge.

It's given us an opportunity to start critical discussions with our congregations, parents, community leaders and members, about the laws that govern education in Pennsylvania.
