Meet Our Families
The heart of Stop the Wait RI isn’t just our work — it’s the families who power it.
Vision board party
At the end of 2025, our families came together for a vision board gathering—creating space to reflect, connect, and set intentions for the year ahead. Moments like these remind us of the power of community and what’s possible when families come together around shared hopes for their children and their schools.
A moment to pause and give thanks to the incredible parents who show up, speak out, and lead. Together, we celebrate their impact while creating space to build new relationships and strengthen our community.
This event is truly led by families—parents helped plan it, brought food to share, and shaped the experience from start to finish. What began as their idea became a powerful gathering that reflects the strength, leadership, and unity of our community.

Summer 2025 visit to the Boston Museum of Science
20 families participated in a field trip to the Boston Museum of Science — and for nearly every family, it was their first time ever going.
Watching parents and children explore together, ask questions, and imagine new possibilities was a reminder that access and exposure change lives.
