For Such A Time As This
At The Expectations Project, we believe civic engagement and faith are intertwined cords of a sacred spiritual journey. This is why we champion the power of faithful individuals and communities to demand excellent, inclusive public education for every child in the United States. We fuel faith-based movements locally and nationally to eliminate education inequality.

One of the reasons we have hope is because there are things that are proven to help Black, Brown and other marginalized students have an equitable education. We’ve chosen policy areas that we believe will change our systems for the better! We believe in the importance of being both grounded in research and in being practical.We are people who expect a greater, safer, more beautiful and more just world for all students to learn and thrive in. We are advocates who expect more from ourselves and from all adults to provide for children well. We are a community who expects and believes in the brilliance of all of our babies - every last one. We refuse to accept one school system for affluent, white children and another for everyone else.
A word from the president.

Together, we understand the political moment we are in and the opportunity we have to invite people towards a world we dream of - a world where a child can be a child.
