BRICK Education Network is a non-profit organization based in Newark, New Jersey, dedicated to breaking down barriers and empowering children, caregivers, and communities. Their innovative approach combines excellent education with comprehensive family support to ensure every child's academic success. Through their programs and initiatives, BRICK addresses academic achievement gaps, health inequity, hunger, housing insecurity, and lack of economic mobility, providing holistic solutions that encompass education, health, wellness, housing, and career development.
Within the South Ward Promise Neighborhood, BRICK operates various programs such as South Ward Healthy Beginnings, which offers accessible quality maternity care and support for kindergarten readiness, and the South Ward Wellness Center, providing essential healthcare access with a focus on maternal care. Additionally, BRICK's Family Village initiative revitalizes the neighborhood by rehabilitating distressed properties into affordable living solutions. They also offer career pathways and a non-traditional college degree program called Gateway U, preparing individuals for good-paying jobs in management, communications, healthcare management, and teaching. At Gateway Academy Charter School, BRICK collaborates with families and the community to nurture students' intellect and identities, guiding them towards college graduation and self-determined futures.
