Resources for
Education
Over the past 75 years, the literacy rate for Black children in Washington, DC, dropped from over
90% to 23%
That collapse is what systemic issues, government mismanagement, and misguided education reforms produced
CARE invests in community liberation.
We advocate for educational resources.
We strengthen the village that raises our children.
Our Programs
CARE DC invests in the educators, neighbors, and families who shape the future of our children. Through grassroots leadership and collective action, we build community power to advance education revolution from the classroom, to the block, to the home.
The Movement
The CARE DC movement was built with the future in mind.
Our programs and strategies are shared across each chapter, yet each group operates independently. This structure ensures that communities can tailor their efforts specifically for their community, while still collectively fighting for liberation.
