Using accessible technology to unlock the potential of families and teachers in student success
About us
We’re an education technology non-profit on a mission to make it easy for any parent to be engaged in their children’s education especially in low-income, diverse communities. Parent engagement can drive student success twice as much as a family’s socioeconomic status, yet underserved, diverse families struggle to get involved. We help teachers and parents build relationships, shift mindsets, create communities and understand what effective parent engagement looks like so that students can be better supported to become part of an inclusive, diverse workforce in America and beyond. We’re building a multilingual family engagement platform with AI and human-powered two-way translation, and personalized coaching content. By breaking down the informational, cultural and socioeconomic barriers between school and home, TalkingPoints’ vision is to narrow the achievement gap through increasing effective family engagement in low-income communities in a low-cost, yet effective way. We’re on track to serving over 3 million students by 2020, and have been recognized by organizations such as MIT, Google.org, Ashoka, Forbes, Echoing Green as innovative solutions to tackle the achievement gap. We’re backed by AT&T Aspire, Google, Comcast NBCUniversal, NewSchools Venture Fund, General Motors and Stanford University.
