2025 Annual Report
Jeremiah Program Impact
“Some of the best strategies, insights, and strengths come from mothers who are navigating complex systems while raising children and pursuing their dreams.”
—JP MINNEAPOLIS-ST. PAUL ALUMNI FELLOW
Single mothers, who represent 80% of single‑parent households, remain powerful drivers of economic and generational mobility.
In 2025 at Jeremiah Program (JP), we deepened our commitment to improving outcomes for single mothers working to matriculate in and graduate from college — even as rising costs for housing, child care, and groceries collided with declining supports like Pell Grants and health insurance coverage.
We completed our first‑ever alumni census, elevated moms’ voices in public policy, and significantly increased direct financial support to families. Your partnership made this progress possible.
See how JP is making a difference in the lives of over 2,000 moms and children.
