About TalkingPoints

TalkingPoints is an award-winning education technology nonprofit organization with the mission to unlock the potential of families to support their children’s learning by partnering with their children’s schools. Our universal family engagement platform connects families and teachers and other important school staff through real-time, two-way translated messages and personalized supports that eliminate language, time limitations, and know-how as barriers to school/family partnerships.

The impact of the pandemic on student learning amplified the need for our solution. Our user base has grown exponentially as more districts and schools adopt TalkingPoints to connect their staff with all families. In places where school or district-wide adoption of TalkingPoints hasn’t happened yet, teachers are using our free product to engage their students’ families. We are working to scale the support our solution offers educators and families during this critical time when education equity gaps are more concerning than ever. By joining our growing team you will be helping us achieve our mission, and helping millions of students get the support they need to succeed. Learn more.

Diversity: we celebrate it, we support it, and we thrive on it!
