Mercy Education Project is a learning community for women and girls where quality education, access to resources, encouragement, and empowerment are the vehicles for future success.

We believe every woman and girl has the right to boundless opportunities and resources necessary to be educated no matter their backgrounds, beliefs, or socio-economic situation.

MEP’s programming provides personalized learning plans and socio-emotional learning enrichment to women and girls through one-to-one tutoring, mentoring, STEAM learning, College and Career Readiness, educational summer camps, and other activities for girls; and adult basic education, GED preparation, and workforce development for women.

Mercy Education Project believes in the values shared by MEP’s founders, the Sisters of Mercy:

• Works of Mercy

• Community

• Service

• Social Justice and the 5 Critical Concerns

Mercy Education Project’s goals for each woman and girl:

1) Nurture and develop intellectual and social growth

2) Assist in raising self-esteem

3) Support efforts towards self-sufficiency, economic mobility, and stability
