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
