Join us for this important conversation focusing on successful community/school partnerships and the best strategies for implementing these collaborative ventures.
Leaders in the field will discuss how their partnerships were generated and the components needed to form a successful partnership (planning, communication, training/professional development, curriculum, shared measurement/outcomes, etc.). Our panel will explore challenges, as well as the value these partnerships can add to staff and participants. Learn about paths of scaling initiatives to reach a larger network of schools/CBOs and how funders can best support and invest in these partnerships to assure their success.
