StriveTogether is a national movement working to ensure every child has every opportunity to succeed.
About us
StriveTogether is a national movement with a clear purpose: help every child succeed in school and in life, cradle to career, regardless of race, ethnicity, zip code or circumstance. Since launching nationally in 2010, StriveTogether has learned a great deal about what it takes for communities to improve outcomes for children at scale. Our nationally recognized approach supports communities in collecting and using local data to illuminate obstacles facing children of color and those living in poverty. Community partners use these findings to make decisions in real time to improve and properly scale practices and target resources to support what works. In short, data gives StriveTogether communities the insight and information to make smarter investments in the success of every child, from cradle to career.. Visit www.strivetogether.org

In transformed systems, #CivicInfrastructure will ensure that young people — no matter who they are or where they’re from — are supported to thrive and contribute in our interconnected world. To create change that is meaningful and lasting, we need public sector adoption. When public officials and governments institutionalize shifts to policies, practices, resources and power structures, communities get better, more equitable outcomes. Learn more about the role public sector adoption plays in putting more youth on a path to #EconomicMobility: https://hubs.li/Q02Mlpvw0
