The mission of Future Is Now Schools - Los Angeles is to increase the upward mobility of the most vulnerable student populations; homeless, foster, and probationary youth.

We envision culturally responsive student-centered communities of learning and positive youth development where adolescents thrive.

We believe youth have an innate human capacity — resilience, that can improve the life trajectories of youth when nurtured with self-agency and persistence.

Our mission is to change education for marginalized student populations and to support effective educator-led initiatives that lead to improvements in the classrooms, at school sites, throughout districts, and in unions.
