Breakthrough Collaborative is a national leader in educational equity, focusing on inspiring students and developing teachers. We are dedicated to creating empowering educational experiences for traditionally underrepresented students on their path to college. As the largest pre-professional teacher training program in the country, we prioritize closing opportunity gaps for students through our model starting in middle school.

Our mission also involves introducing college students to careers in teaching to build a diverse and talented educator workforce. With a national scale and regional approach, we leverage the talent of students from over 250 colleges and universities to meet the needs of motivated, underrepresented youth from coast to coast. Each year, we connect 10,000 students with 1,100 college-aged Teaching Fellows in 24 cities across the country.

Our impactful approach has resulted in breakthrough results, with our students being 50% more likely to directly enroll in a four-year college than high school graduates nationwide. We have over 40 years of experience in creating systems-level change, one student and teacher at a time. Join us to be a part of the educational equity movement and make a difference
