Each year, we request data to understand social issues negatively impacting underserved communities that we serve. As a result of our program, community members are empowered to solve social issues on their own and with limited support from our team. They are better equipped to budget and manage funds, and have a pathway to economic mobility. Finally, community participants are more informed and engaged about issues impacting their lives and the root of those issues. https://www.4wardinclusion.org/about daily 0.75 2025-04-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f440d08b5d36775172a04c/e93b9f94-8120-4004-a80b-4db1b374a90e/Screen+Shot+2022-01-29+at+9.39.19+PM.png Our History - There were 32 individuals in total 32 parents, siblings, educators, police officers, and more who deserved a space to unpack and explore their emotions, relearn history, and begin the journey of identity development, in ways that are identify the parts of their identity that are marginalized. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f440d08b5d36775172a04c/6d7a0897-ff10-4686-8a4e-67f881d5f5d1/Screen+Shot+2022-01-31+at+8.20.04+PM.png Our History - 4ward Inclusion was founded in 2017, and become a 501(c)3 non-profit organizaion soon after. While the education and political climate have shifted dramatically since 2018, the solutions that we were developed to reduce and dismantle are still prevalent in low-income communities of color. 4ward Inclusion was created to provide racial equity and trauma-informed programs to 4 groups- youth, educators, parents/caregivers, and community organizations. Our mission is to create the conditions that youth from marginalized populations need to be successful in life, so we work with the entire village that raises each child. Jo Beavers founded 4ward Inclusion in her twenties as she processsed the racial trauma after an experience that was her first (and only) time in handcuffs in her neighborhood, just one year before the death of Trayvon Martin. Her experiences took her directly into the education space where she became 1 of 3 Black women to launch the Equity and Antioppression team that would lead a 200 person education nonprofit on it’s journey to become an anti-racist organization. Jo views adversity as a superpower that can bring diverse groups of people into one shared space for learning and problem solving. She applies her experience as a licensed Social Worker to leading 4ward Inclusion, and after confronting racial discourse and the grief of her grandmothers passing, Jo developed the Move 4ward framework which she defines as one’s ability to shift their mindset, change their behavior, and recover from past trauma. https://www.4wardinclusion.org/team daily 0.75 2022-03-21 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/61f440d08b5d36775172a04c/e10f5cbb-51ca-40b2-8b4b-41f6cc3e09d7/image_50736641.jpg Our Team - Managing Director at Achievement Network Tiffany Alvarez-Smith Teacher, Influencer, Decision Maker Experienced educator with proven track record making instructional impact in urban school settings.
