About this grant
The Netter Center for Community Partnerships at the University of Pennsylvania will oversee the writing of a book that will chronicle the experiences and lessons of the modern-day community schools movement. The book will cover cross-cutting themes including partnerships, equity, shared leadership, results, policy, research and documentation, communication, capacity building, financing, infrastructure and flexibility. The authors will make the case that the community schools strategy is essential in all public schools as the nation grapples with COVID-19 and systemic racial issues.
