WE HELP CHANGE MAKERS THINK
BIG & DEEPEN IMPACT

Reframe Labs is an incubator and innovation consultancy for the education sector. We are a 501c3 public charity.
We believe in challenging the status quo and thinking differently in everything we do.

We have a dream for a world in which all children are prepared and excited for their futures, can meaningfully engage in their communities, and can fulfill their potential.

Our path to fulfilling this dream is to help social impact leaders think big, change mindsets, challenge assumptions and bring out their best. Our name—Reframe—communicates a desire to help people look at beliefs, ideas, and relationships in new or different ways, unleashing them to create bolder, more impactful solutions.

We’re an unconventional collaborator.
We built the organization we’d want to hire.

Dr. Tonya Derbigny
“Where would I be without Reframe? I’ve always had a core vision, and they’ve helped me refine it and think about what future we’re preparing for our kids. Reframe has turned my ideas into something real.”

Anita Ravi
“Both the format and the content gave me the kick in the pants I needed to take my venture seriously and get moving to make it happen… Each activity supported me to strategize and think in ways I have not done before.”

Vanessa Jackson
“Russ brought structure and experience to our strategic planning process. He was a critical partner who prevented us from making some bad mistakes while focusing on priority issues. From orchestrating our strategic planning process to offering opinions on difficult decisions to regularly meeting with our board and staff members, he was delightful to work with and a major difference maker in taking us from idea to something real.”
Vanessa Jackson
Margeaux Randolph
“The AI Revolution is coming, and it won’t be televised. We need to dramatically reshape the way we support learning, especially for kids in South LA. Reframe pushes us to recognize we must figure out new, more effective ways of doing things to achieve radically-improved student outcomes.”
Margeaux Randolph
