(E-SToPP) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit corporation created and existing under the Laws of the State of Florida dedicated to eradicating the school to prison pipeline throughout Miami-Dade’s most economically marginalized communities by creating a grassroots network of transformative racially equitable schools and educational opportunities for underserved and unserved youth, by laying the groundwork for a seamless sustainable reentry navigation route for students who have been isolated through exclusionary school discipline, referral, suspension, expulsion, and/or incarceration. E-SToPP’s Vision Using E-SToPP’s Transformative Research, Education, and Praxis framework, E-SToPP offers a paradigm shift for naming, challenging, navigating, healing from, resisting, changing, and transforming policies, practices, definitions, and assumptions that prevail as racial inequity in all its intersections and manifestations in schools in a broken system, pushing our Black and Brown children into the school-to prison pipeline; thereby, E-SToPP envisions grassroots development of alternatives to the school-to-prison pipeline as antidotes to oppressive models of education.E-SToPP’s Principles E-SToPP Principles outline our dedication to create a grassroots network of racially equitable schools and educational opportunities with a kind, loving, and welcoming climate for learning at each touchpoint for youth who have been isolated through exclusionary school discipline, referral, suspension, expulsion, and/or incarceration.
