Community Works
Building capacity in school-centered neighborhoods.
Neighborhoods that thrive![AltText]()
While we focus broadly on developing school capacity and providing access to new resources for our Title I schools, our primary work is Community Works. Community Works is all about neighborhood reinvestment based on a model of relocation and in-the-streets work in our neighborhoods of most significant need. Using a single school-based community worker living in a neighborhood 7x24, we pursue a model of partnering to meet life needs, building school and neighborhood identity, and turning the school into a neighborhood resource. Our goal? A neighborhood-wide improvement in social interaction and supportive relationships and expectations for kids. The same supportive relationships that leading researchers say have a fundamental influence on the trajectory of child development.
