What is Prepare the Future?
The mission of Prepare the Future is to rekindle hope in America by building a powerful voice of ordinary citizens that reflects the widely shared values of fairness, trust, responsibility, and strong caring communities. Because the quality of a child's education is pivotal to all aspects of a child's life and future, our first priority is to ensure a quality public education for all children that each of us wants for our own children and grandchildren.

Our goal is to create a permanent advocacy infrastructure in communities and states across the nation with sophisticated, staffed, and well-funded on-the-ground and on line capacity. This advocacy infrastructure will ensure that policy impacting children at the local, state, and national levels:
- Reflects our core values of fairness, trust and responsibility and strong, caring communities;
- Ensures that the academic achievement and promotion/graduation of rates of students is improved overall; and
- Narrows the achievement gap at a pace that will virtually eliminate it within one student generation.
