 The creation of UAA was inspired by the lack of educational equity in many school districts across the United States, the lack of 21st Century Learning opportunities that continues to affect outcomes for many students and families of color and to STOP the School-to-Prison-Pipeline.?  The horrible and ugly truth is that the number of Privatized Prisons are built across the United States based upon data received from the Department of Education regarding students under-performing in reading, and math, student suspensions, and expulsions rates, and high school drop-out rates. It is even more shocking to learn that the School-to-Prison-Pipeline? is determined as early as Pre-K through 3rd grade and especially affects students of color in the Education Gap, students with disabilities, and students. UAA’s successful pilot project revealed that evidenced-based and researched-validated student support interventions and resources tremendously improved outcomes for students in the education gap, and students with disabilities.  UAA’s pilot identified six (6) types of student profiles receiving support interventions by UAA’s Educational First Responders/Advocates at five, (5) school districts: Sacramento City, Twin Rivers, Elk Grove, Natomas, & Folsom-Cordova.

The Representation Project (TRP) is a cutting-edge global 501(c)(3) non-profit organization dedicated to gender equality by exposing harmful gender stereotypes in media and culture and advocating for an end to limiting gender norms. We transform culture by shifting the public’s attitudes and behavior around limiting gender stereotypes and norms through the use of documentary films, education, and activism. In 2011, Jennifer Siebel Newsom founded TRP in response to the overwhelming public demand for ongoing education and social action in support of her first film, Miss Representation. Since then, TRP released Newsom’s second film, The Mask You Live In, and a third film, The Great American Lie. The organization is well known for creating popular social media activism campaigns such as #NotBuyingIt, #AskHerMore, and #RepresentHer. We give voice to the next generation of change agents through youth education and activation programs, including an online youth media lab and media training academies for students.
