In Jefferson County, there are gaps in opportunities for Latino children and families to succeed and thrive in our communities. Latino children struggle academically versus their White peers. Latino leaders dream of starting their own business or becoming a leader in their community, but face more hurdles to realizing their dreams.
At Edgewater Collective, we are committed to working with Latino communities in Jefferson County to remove these hurdles and create opportunities for Latino children and their families to realize their dreams and thrive.

Edgewater Collective promotes programs and partnerships to improve education, economic opportunity, and civic engagement with Latino communities across Jefferson County.
Edgewater Collective began in 2013 to rally the community around its local, neighborhood schools. During the first year of operation, Edgewater Collective experimented with different programs from art walks to tutoring programs.
Then in 2014, it was decided that the best way forward was to act as a backbone organization to rally community partners around seeing every child in the community succeed from cradle to career. This effort was known as the Jefferson Success Pathway.
Since the pandemic we've shifted to provide direct programming to help students grow academically, advocate for great neighborhood schools with Latino family leaders and build community wealth through worker cooperatives.
