Springboard Collaborative is an education-focused nonprofit organization based in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It works to improve reading proficiency for children, particularly low-income students, by partnering with families and educators through a structured program called Family-Educator Learning Accelerators (FELAs). The model emphasizes collaborative, at-home tutoring led by families in coordination with teachers, aiming to help students reach grade-level reading by fourth grade and to close gaps in a relatively short cycle. The organization positions itself as a nationwide effort to harness family involvement as a scalable, cost-effective approach to high-quality instructional time, with reported high parent engagement in its workshops and substantial at-home tutoring when educators lead sessions. Recent developments include leadership changes and the formal introduction of the FELA methodology, reflecting ongoing expansion of its family-educator partnership approach.
