Step Up for Elementary/Middle Schools

In the middle of COVID-19, EDR has shifted its main focus to mitigating the severe “educational loss” among younger students in underserved immigrant communities. To this end, EDR has expanded the Step Up afterschool/summer program in Brockton in collaboration with the mayor’s office and Brockton Public Schools (BPS).

One of the major frameworks for the programs and mission of EDR is the UN Sustainable Development Goals.
