History
Inner Force was co- founded in 1996 by Dr. Garey V. Ellis and Tomora-Lutreast Ellis; in response to city wide school closures and overwhelming achievement gaps within New York City's public schools. Dr. Ellis and his wife sought to create a program to support and provide choices for families in urban populations who valued education but lacked the resources to enroll their children in competitive quality educational programs. After a decade of providing quality supplemental education programs to over 1500 school aged children in the North Brooklyn area, Inner Force responded to a growing need in the community for quality Early Childhood Education. In 2007, Inner Force gave birth to Inner Force Tots and created a program geared to addressing the needs of children; from birth through age five.
