Jeremiah Program Alumni Network

JP Alumni Network

Experts of our experience. Architects of our solutions.

A NATIONAL SISTERHOOD 

The JP Alumni Network

JP recognizes that economic mobility is a marathon, not a sprint. Fostering community among JP alumni is essential to navigating the challenges of disrupting generational poverty and shifting outcomes for current and future generations raised by single moms pursuing economic mobility. The JP alumni network champions the collective power of sisterhood, amplifying the voices of our amazing moms.


HOW IT WORKS

Alumni Fellowship

Central to the alumni network is the Jeremiah Program Alumni Fellowship, a selective, yearlong, cohort-based leadership program. JP fellows are leaders who see being a great mom as their most important job and are excited about the opportunity to advance solutions that support economic mobility, public policy, and two-generation programming for single mothers and their children experiencing poverty.

WHAT FELLOWS CAN EXPECT

  • Participate in four seminars focused on leadership development, economic mobility, public policy, and two-generation programming under the guidance of expert facilitators.
  • Three (3) two-day trips per year (includes hotel, air, travel costs, childcare stipend) — participation is required.
  • $5,000 yearly stipend​
