The Company

At Edovo, our mission is to help everyone connected to incarceration build better lives. We’ve created a secure digital platform to expand education behind bars, reduce recidivism and to support the vocational and rehabilitation needs of the 2 million people in jails and prisons. At present, the Edovo platform has been licensed for use across 99% of the tablets in American jails and prisons. Users have access to tens of thousands of hours of self-guided learning materials, ranging from basic literacy and GED to career exploration and cognitive behavioral therapy. We’re also building tools for facility staff, educators, and content providers who need to be able to serve justice-involved people at scale.

Don’t just take it from us. Awards, publications, grants, and partnerships all around the country have recognized the momentum and impact of Edovo. A select few: Grow with Google Partner, Global EdTechp Champion (London) out of 1,000+ competitors; GIIRS Platinum Rating for social impact; MacArthur Foundation Grant Award Winner; Forbes article feature; Chicago Community Trust grant award winner; Impact Engine portfolio member; SXSW Civic Tech Innovation Pitch Competition runner-up; Chicago Innovation "Up and Comer" Award winner; and much more.
