REACH
Family & Education Center

REACH is a community-based organization that provides spaces to empower families as lifelong learners who together learn, live, and love seeking just and peaceful neighborhoods.

OUR VISION

What are our hopes and dreams?

We imagine being able to transform the marginalized Brooklyn communities surrounding the REACH Center. By providing learning opportunities, REACH envisions the development of healthy neighborhoods, families, and individuals that are able to flourish. We seek to promote just relationships and advocate for social justice.
