The EdRights App is made possible through the generosity of the Deaconess Foundation, a grant making organization building power for child well-being in the St. Louis area through philanthropy, advocacy, and organizing for racial equity and public policy change. The Education Justice Program is grateful for the Deaconess Foundation’s continuing support and partnership in targeting the root causes of education inequity in Missouri.
