Schulze Hall, University of St. Thomas

Jeremiah Program (JP) announced the launch of its <a href="https://jeremiahprogram.org/student-parent-conversation/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">2026 Community Conversations Tour</a>, a national series designed to elevate the voices of single mothers, examine the systemic barriers facing families, and advance solutions that drive economic mobility across generations.
Led by <a href="https://jeremiahprogram.org/people/chastity-lord/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Chastity Lord</a>, President and CEO of Jeremiah Program, the tour will convene community members, policymakers, educators, and advocates in cities across the country. Lord will be joined by <a href="https://www.generationhope.org/about-nicole-lynn-lewis" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Nicole Lynn Lewis</a>, Founder and CEO of Generation Hope, bringing together two national leaders in the two-generation space to explore the future of family prosperity.
“At the Jeremiah Program, we know that when a mother succeeds, her children—and her community—succeed alongside her,” said Lord. “This tour is about listening deeply to families, challenging the systems that have historically excluded them, and advancing solutions rooted in what we know works. Generational poverty is not inevitable—it is the result of policy choices, and it requires bold, sustained investment to change outcomes.”
Across the country, single mothers continue to navigate systems that were not designed with their realities in mind. According to recent data, single mothers represent the majority of single-parent households, with a disproportionate number living at or below the poverty line. At the same time, more than 2 million single mothers are enrolled in postsecondary education—demonstrating both the demand for opportunity and the barriers that persist.
Through the Community Conversations Tour, Jeremiah Program will spotlight the critical role of its two-generation approach, which simultaneously invests in a mother’s education, career pathways, and leadership development while supporting her children’s academic success. The series will also elevate insights from families themselves, reinforcing JP’s belief that those closest to the challenges are essential to shaping the solutions.
Lewis’s forthcoming book, Student Parent: The Fight for Families, the Cost of Poverty, and the Power of College (March 2026), further underscores the urgency of addressing the structural barriers facing student parents and reimagining systems that support long-term economic mobility.
“Families are navigating challenges that require more than short-term solutions,” said Lewis. “This tour creates space to examine root causes, center lived experience, and push for the kind of systemic change that makes success possible for student parents.”
Insights from the 2026 Community Conversations will inform Jeremiah Program’s ongoing program innovation, policy advocacy, and national thought leadership—equipping leaders across sectors with actionable strategies to better support single mothers and their families.
About Jeremiah Program 
Jeremiah Program (JP) is a national organization whose mission is to disrupt the cycle of poverty for single mothers and their children, two generations at a time. By investing simultaneously in a mother’s vision for her personal and professional goals and the education of her children, she simultaneously reauthors her family’s outcome as well her community’s — proof points matter. In 2025, JP actively served over 2,000 moms and children across nine cities in Austin, TX; Baltimore, MD; Boston, MA; Brooklyn, NY; Fargo, ND-Moorhead, MN; Las Vegas, NV; Minneapolis, MN; Rochester, MN; and St. Paul, MN.

Edina Brand Launches Smarter Jumpsuit Design

KRE Prime

About Us MINNEAPOLIS — KRE PRIME, a Minneapolis-based adaptive apparel innovation company, is bringing practical engineering to one of fashion’s most versatile—but often inconvenient—staples: the jumpsuit. KRE PRIME creates premium adaptive apparel that brings style, accessibility, and real-life functionality together. Its patent-pending Convertible Jumpsuit System addresses a familiar challenge: using the restroom without awkwardly removing the entire garment. The flagship Dual-Look Set includes one tapered pant foundation and two interchangeable tops—the Keyhole and the Bardot. The pieces may be worn separately or connected through KRE PRIME’s discreet front horizontal hip-to-hip closure system, creating polished looks that transition from work and travel to evening plans. Founder Kate Barikor Grady developed the concept from personal experience. Although she appreciated the clean, minimalist look of jumpsuits, she found traditional designs inconvenient for everyday life. “I wanted something that felt effortless but also worked with the way people actually live,” Grady said. “It needed to be beautiful, but also practical.” The closure system allows the pants component to separate while the top remains worn and styled, supporting faster, more discreet restroom access. This design may also provide greater flexibility and comfort for customers with diverse mobility and accessibility needs. A smooth, hardware-free rear panel is designed to support seated comfort while preserving a refined silhouette. KRE PRIME is a digital-first brand with local roots. Grady founded the company in loving memory of her late sister, Tonubari Barikor, and built its mission around mobility, confidence, accessibility, function, and legacy. The Dual-Look Set is available in Classic Black and Crimson Red, in sizes S through XL, for \$150. KRE PRIME also offers an \$85 Starter Set and a \$300 Signature Wardrobe Capsule.
