Eradicating the School-to-Prison Pipeline Foundation, Inc. (E-SToPP)

E-SToPP is a nonprofit organization committed to addressing the school to prison pipeline in southeast Florida. Their mission is to eliminate the pipeline through intervention services and restorative justice for low income youth. E-SToPP builds and maintains transformative schools, facilitates justice oriented educational opportunities and offers ongoing services to young people in an effort to prevent them from entering the justice system at an early age. Staff and volunteers understand the unique consequences and barriers that affect young people who interact with police inside school systems across Florida, as well as the trauma caused by negative interactions with police at an early age. Families and individuals can locate application materials for E-SToPP transformative schools and programs via their website. All applicants must first submit an application and undergo a screening to determine eligibility for services.
