The University for Parents (U4P) is a signature initiative of the National CARES Mentoring Movement, founded by Susan L. Taylor, the former editor-in-chief of Essence Magazine. U4P Atlanta is a transformative, community-based program that partners with local organizations to deliver career readiness training, wellness workshops, and support classes designed to empower parents. By addressing key challenges and fostering growth, U4P helps parents achieve self-sufficiency and economic mobility while creating stronger foundations for their families. Through its holistic approach, U4P equips participants with the tools, confidence, and resources needed to break barriers and build lasting success.
