105,000 children in New York are impacted by parental incarceration, threatening their developmental well-being. In response, partnering with organizations like Children of Promise, MindLeaps works with system-impacted children in Brooklyn and the Bronx, to develop social-emotional and cognitive skills to increase emotional resilience.

In Mauritania, only 42% of females are literate. Girls are restricted to chores inside the home as "house servants." This prevents them from attending school and developing the skills they need to succeed in life and understand their rights. MindLeaps is addressing this problem through a unique creative arts approach that attracts girls to safe spaces. We provide school sponsorship, psychological health, and nutrition, setting the girls on a path to education, careers, & positive life decisions.
