Research consistently shows that engaging communities leads to innovative and effective solutions. In an opinion piece published by The 74 Media, Baron R. Davis, Ph.D., senior advisor to Digital Promise, points to Inclusive Innovation as a promising but underutilized approach with the potential to significantly impact the nation’s attendance crisis: "Because students and families are the groups most impacted, they must also be a part of developing the solutions." Read the Baron's article to learn more about Digital Promise's efforts to support 17 school districts nationwide to address chronic absenteeism. https://lnkd.in/eeXCvGbQ
