EMBRACE collaborates with the Catholic School Office of the Archdiocese of Kansas City in Kansas, to offer grants and assistance to schools in the Archdiocese of Kansas. Since 2018, EMBRACE has awarded over $1.65 million dollars in grants for schools to hire staff and purchase resources to support students with disabilities and learning differences. Since 2020, EMBRACE has awarded $365,000 in scholarships to Archdiocesan teachers. Our first 4 Cohorts of 35 teachers received their special education licensure. Eleven more teachers were awarded scholarships in 2024 for Cohort 5. Cohort 5 is the first group to receive their masters level degree in Special Education.

EMBRACE held our third annual EMBRACE the Brew on September 21, 2024! With our largest crowd of 370 guests, we had our most successful night of giving. We completely sold out our venue and raised $301,000 to help support students with disabilities and learning differences in their Catholic schools in the Archdiocese of Kansas City in Kansas. Thank you to all those who attended and/or supported our event. It was a great evening.
