Jeremiah Program Boston

Today is National !

To celebrate JP moms and their kids, we help families open 529 investment
accounts to save for their children’s future college expenses.

In 2025, JP invested over $97,000 in 529 accounts for JP kids, giving them the foundation for a brighter future.

Yesterday, we hosted our second annual Community Conversation at More than Words bookstore. This event featured a fireside chat between JP's CEO and President, Chastity Lord, JP Boston's Executive Director, Alison Carter Marlow, and Generation Hope's Founder and CEO, Nicole Lynn Lewis. Chastity, Alison, and Nicole discussed the complex challenges that student parents face. We are so grateful for the powerful experience!

Join us for an unforgettable evening of inspiration, storytelling, and community at Voices Rising 2026 which will take place on Wednesday, October 14 at Grace by Nia.

Voices Rising is our signature fundraising event—celebrating JP moms and alumni as they share powerful stories of resilience, transformation, and leadership.

This year’s theme, Legacy, honors Jeremiah Boston’s ten years of impact and the lasting difference our community continues to make.

Happy Mother’s Day to our incredible Boston moms!

We are so honored to be a part of your families’ journeys. ♥

Meet Rachael, our Family Services Director at JP Boston. In her role, she oversees programming designed to support and uplift single mothers pursuing higher education. Drawing on her background in mental health and social work, she leads with both strategy and heart, while also staying connected to the work through coaching and relationship-building. Rachael is passionate about this work because it mirrors her own journey of single motherhood, making each success story even more meaningful.

What she loves most about coaching:

Rachael enjoys coaching because she gets to witness moms set meaningful goals for themselves and their families—and then take real steps toward achieving them. She says, “there’s something powerful about supporting women as they build pathways toward stability, confidence, and long-term success.”

Words that inspire her:

“Start where you stand.” - A simple reminder that you don’t have to have everything figured out to begin. You just have to take the first step from where you are.

These are challenging times.

Through the stresses of rising gas prices, rent increases, and food costs that keep climbing, mothers are demonstrating an unwavering commitment to their children’s futures.

They’re refusing to let circumstances dictate possibility.

This Mother’s Day, honor the mothers in your life — and mothers everywhere — by investing in their possibility: https://jeremiahprogram.org/mygift

Join us for a meaningful conversation about student parents with Alison Carter Marlow, Nicole Lynn Lewis and Chastity Lord—an important dialogue on the barriers student parents face and the role higher education can play in breaking cycles of poverty.

Single mothers represent a significant share of both families and college students, yet far too few complete their degrees. Together, we’ll center lived experiences, explore the link between education and economic mobility, and discuss actionable ways to better support student parents.
