Springboard Collaborative is dedicated to closing the literacy gap by fostering collaboration between home and school. The organization coaches educators and family members to ensure students achieve reading proficiency by fourth grade. Since its inception in 2012, Springboard has expanded its reach to over 100,000 students across more than 300 Title 1 schools, offering weekly family workshops with an impressive 88% attendance rate. Their programs result in significant reading gains, with students improving by an average of 3-4 months during each cycle. Springboard emphasizes the importance of diversity and inclusion in its practices, striving to hire a team that reflects the communities they serve and recognizing that those with firsthand experiences of the challenges faced can offer the most effective solutions.
