At one time leadership for civil rights came from the church. 'The Flood' group's strategy requires that power of the clergy, along with community leadership to help address the challenge of ensuring educational attainment for our children.

There are four factors that impact whether a student is successful: (1) School, (2) Home, (3) Community, (4) Individual. The Flood Group is deeply committed to student and parent advocacy and was founded by Dr. Dudley Flood and Reverend Marion Robinson to ensure student success by providing support in all four of these areas.
