Greater Than

The organization's mission is to support and empower students from poverty-impacted communities to thrive in school, college, and career. Working alongside parents, community partners and local school districts, Greater Than seeks to transform public education outcomes in Oregon for historically underserved students. We view every aspect of our work through the lens of racial equity, which guides our decision-making, relationships, policies, and practices. Our work is built on three pillars: our programs aim to advance a racially just future for learning because equitable education is a right, we are intent on moving from a system of holding power over community to holding power with community, and we are committed to racial equity and the restructuring of systems that create inequities for marginalized students.
