Join us for a conversation about how local governments, in collaboration with schools, nonprofits, and community partners, are reimagining systems to promote economic mobility and educational success.

Drawing from emerging models, the conversation will highlight how the cities of Tulsa, Oklahoma and Orlando, Florida, in collaboration with community-based partners, are confronting intergenerational poverty, transforming neighborhoods, and driving cradle-to-career place-based efforts through coordinated systems of supports, opportunities, and data-informed decision-making.
