Our Mission, Vision, and Values
Fewer than 2% of teen mothers earn a college degree before age 30, and more than half of all parenting college students leave school without a degree. We’re committed to changing these statistics
one family and one system at a time.
Our Mission
To ensure all student parents have the opportunities to succeed, experience economic mobility, and build wealth, Generation Hope engages education and policy partners to drive systemic change and provides direct support to teen parents in college as well as their children through holistic, two-generation programming.
Our Vision
All teen parents and student parents, and their children, have every opportunity to succeed and are empowered to create a better future for themselves, our community, and our world.
Our Race Equity Blueprint
Our Values
Service
We deliver outstanding, innovative, and people-centered service to ensure all families can pursue their dreams and our various partners can remove barriers to their success.
Abundance
We foster a culture that welcomes, appreciates, respects, and sees potential in all people, knowing that teen parents, student parents, and their children are too often judged and stigmatized.
Family
We believe in the power of community, collaboration, and belonging, and we support, sustain, and celebrate family in all its forms.
Racial Equity
We work to eliminate racial barriers and discrimination that are historical and current drivers of poverty and oppression, creating a world where all families are truly free.
Education
We understand that learning, growth, and development lead to a future of endless possibilities.
