Our Programs

The Call to Effective Action (CEA) empowers innovative tutoring and individualized instruction models that have the potential to create a substantial impact on student reading and math outcomes, especially in historically underserved communities. Emphasizing scalability, grantees complete a research-driven evaluation of program impact as part of their collaboration with Accelerate.

The States Leading Recovery (SLR) grant program partners with state education agencies to identify strong tutoring models, offer subgrants to districts to adopt these models, and develop a regulatory framework to ease this adoption. SLR grantees develop criteria for eligible tutoring models, encourage adoption through district guidance and support, and participate in rigorous research to assess tutoring impact.

Our Community of Practice brings together 50+ organizations from Accelerate’s current and past grant cohorts. Through regular virtual meetings and an annual in-person convening, we foster collaboration and joint problem-solving to build alignment, grow capacity, and provide research-based implementation support across all organizational levels.
