San Antonio Community Resource Directory
MindshiftED Parent Institute (Nonprofit )

Systemic racism in San Antonio has denied children of color, specifically Latino and Black children, access to the resources and opportunities they need to reach their highest potential.

Our children deserve to go to great schools. We’re building a movement by educating and empowering parents to demand that all our children get the high-quality education they deserve.

Together, we create better futures for our children.

Our Fellowship creates a safe community to have difficult conversations. Our parents tell their stories, giving words to the injustices their children face.

Through our advocacy training, parents learn to challenge the status quo and the systems that were created to deny our children their right to a quality education.
