Young Minds Inspired (YMI Classroom) is proud to be the leading name in educational marketing, uniquely positioned to reach nearly every teacher, student, and family across the US. Since our founding in 1978, we've built a talented team of former educators who craft fun and engaging outreach materials spanning the curriculum and deliver them directly to every pre-K through secondary school in the country. Along the way, we've created more than 3,000 programs for students and families nationwide — and we're excited to bring that experience to the ACA community.
