Building Opportunity Beyond the Next Step
We work at the intersection of adult education, workforce development, technology, leadership, and justice to help individuals, organizations, and communities turn moments of progress into pathways toward lasting opportunity.
Because success isn’t simply about reaching the next step. It’s about what becomes possible after it.
Our Mission
The And Then What Foundation exists because achieving a milestone should never be the end of the story. We bring people, organizations, ideas, and resources together to create lasting pathways to education, meaningful employment, economic mobility, technology, leadership, and community opportunity.
We believe
Education should lead to opportunity.
Opportunity should lead to purpose.
Purpose should create possibility.
And possibility should strengthen communities.
Our guiding question is: And Then What?
That question challenges us to think beyond programs and services to ensure individuals have the support, resources, and opportunities needed to thrive long after a milestone is reached. It defines our work and distinguishes our apporach.

Who we are
Led by veteran nonprofit executive and national thought leader Jeffrey Abramowitz and supported by a team of recognized experts from across the country, this non-profit foundation provides practical solutions informed by decades of experience in adult education, workforce development, correctional and reentry arenas, philanthropy, and public policy.
