June 10, 2013
In 2000, the Annie E. Casey Foundation launched a multisite community change effort called Making Connections. The initiative tests the theory that children do better when their families do better, and families do better when they live in neighborhoods that provide opportunities for economic self-sufficiency and wealth; responsive, culturally relevant services; and social networks that empower residents and connect them to supports. This paper released in 2006 presents a framework that helps communities and Making Connections sites focus on learning in unconventional ways.
