In 2016, in response to persistent public education challenges in the Houston area, a group of local civic and business leaders coalesced around creating an organization that would, in the words of one of the founding board members, “hold the vision for the community and align people around that vision” for ensuring a quality public education for all students in the Houston area. Good Reason Houston's mission is to ensure that all Houston-area students have access to quality public education options.
"All Means All" documents Good Reason Houston’s impact on public education in the Houston area and offers recommendations for the organization to prepare for and complete successful handoffs to district staff; reassess charter school strategies in response to external challenges; and assess opportunities to expand its impact for community empowerment and policy work.
