Community Involvement Program

About this grant

The Community Involvement Program works with locally-based organizations to build capacity in community organizing so that more low-income parents are engaged in school improvement and school reform efforts. Formerly housed at New York University Institute for Education and Social Policy, the program recently has moved to Brown University’s Annenberg Institute for School Reform.This grant renewal will enable the Community Involvement Program to continue to identify, support, and assess education organizing efforts in New York City.The Annenberg Institute for School Reform works in collaboration with education reform organizations, school districts, school improvement networks and others to develop the capacity of urban communities to build and sustain programs and polices that improve teaching and learning.
