Who Are We
Engaging Hearts and Minds is a trusted education partner committed to expanding access to high-quality, culturally relevant enrichment learning. We collaborate with school districts, expanded learning programs, and community organizations to design and deliver programming that supports academic growth, identity development, and whole-child success.
What We Do
Our team brings deep expertise in curriculum design, youth development, and professional learning. We work alongside districts to strengthen enrichment ecosystems—ensuring programs are aligned, rigorous, engaging, and responsive to the communities they serve.
We partner with districts to plan and implement enrichment programs across multiple settings, including:

Curriculum & Training

We provide standards-aligned, culturally responsive curriculum in Math, English Language Arts, Spanish, Art, and STEM. Districts may integrate our materials into existing programs, whether led by district staff or third-party providers.
Fully-Staffed
Program
For districts seeking a full turnkey option, we provide trained educators to deliver our curriculum directly to students. This ensures strong implementation, consistent quality, and alignment to district goals.
Professional
Development
We design and facilitate professional development for teachers and youth leaders—including non-credentialed expanded learning staff—focused on culturally relevant pedagogy, enrichment best practices, and whole-child instructional design.
Our Approach
Our programs are grounded in our Hearts and Minds approach. We believe that when learners' hearts and minds are truly engaged, they are empowered with the knowledge and skills to use their voices, celebrate, and uplift their communities.
The tenants of our approach are:

Students experience how their voice matters and develop the language skills to use it.

Students connect to what they are learning and to each other.
