Our 10th Anniversary … and Our Name Change

We’re celebrating our 10th anniversary with a name change!

Our new shorter name is: Educate Tomorrow’s Parents

Same goals. Same outstanding programs.
Easier to say. Easier to understand.

Dear Friends and Supporters,

Hard to believe we’ve reached our 10th year as a nonprofit organization! Reaching this milestone has only been possible because of the support we have received from you and other community supporters. And as a result, thousands of teens have had the opportunity to plan ahead for future parenting – one of life’s most important and challenging roles. We celebrate this major accomplishment with you!!

In the last few months, we have been taking large steps forward in realizing our longtime goal to make our curriculum available to educators and parents of teens everywhere.

Our first step was to reconsider our name, Education for Successful Parenting. Too many people were getting the misimpression we only educate people who are already pregnant or parenting. They didn’t think our program was for their teens. “You’re wrong,” is not a fun way to start a conversation with anyone. Especially when we have such a positive message about the many ways our programs help teens plan for bright futures.

We’re proud today to announce our new name: Educate Tomorrow’s Parents.

In addition, we’ve updated our website’s home page to tell our story in a clearer way. And we’ve formatted our instructional materials for easy use by new instructors.

We’re ready for our nationwide debut.

Fresh approach, expanded reach, and still dedicated to the same core values.

Together with you, we envision a world in which adverse childhood experiences such as abuse and neglect are eliminated, and all children can reach their full potential.

Kemani’s Story

kemani-1d
When Kemani Mullins was thirteen she experienced her cousin trying to raise four young children with no experience or guidance on how to care for them. Witnessing these children living in hostile and unsafe conditions was extremely troubling. Kemani feared what the children were going through.

In 2014, Kemani, a freshman at Millbrook High School in Raleigh, NC, had the opportunity to listen to guest instructors from Educate Tomorrow’s Parents (ETP) when they visited her Healthful Living class. Over the span of a couple days, the students were presented with information about children’s needs and how to create strong families. The program allowed Kemani to reflect on her childhood, her life priorities before she has a family, and how she would like to raise her future children. She engaged in activities to plan how to care for a child, including finances, health, life management, and ways to handle real life obstacles.

Kemani thought back to her cousin and a spark was lit inside her. She knew that someday she wanted to be able to provide her own children with the well-being they deserve. That passion has continued to flourish and has allowed Kemani to help educate others in the community by volunteering with Educate Tomorrow’s Parents. It was more than just learning what to do when she has a future family.

“ETP has given me the opportunity to have a voice and reach out to inform others about the seriousness of child safety,” says Kemani. She has worked hard in school and also volunteers at Rex Hospital Child Development Center. Now a senior in high school, Kemani is applying to college with her sights set on becoming a pediatrician. Thanks to Educate Tomorrow’s Parents, Kemani not only looks forward to one day becoming a parent when she is ready, but also having a career where she can help protect the health and safety of many children.

With your generous involvement, many teens like Kemani are receiving guidance and making decisions today that will shape their lives and generations to come.
