NAACP is an association with a mission to secure all rights and ensure the well-being and health of all people while eliminating race-based discrimination. It intends to achieve the mission by acting on issues related to federal advocacy, education, health, criminal justice, and economic opportunity, among others.
To ensure every disadvantaged student of color is on the path to college, NAACP has an education committee with a strategy based on four goals - increasing resource equity by targeting funds to children in the greatest need, ensuring college and career readiness, improving teaching in underserved communities, and returning fairness to discipline by eliminating zero tolerance policies.
Practically, besides fighting for the expansion of charter schools, NAACP provides scholarships to outstanding students through the NAACP Agnes Jones Jackson Scholarship and the Hubertus W. V. Willems Scholarship.
