we work
together

StriveTogether connects communities across the country, converting local change into national impact.

WHERE WE WORK

join the movement

The Cradle to Career Network unites people who want every child to grow up in an equitable world.

People who value collaboration and have the perseverance to pursue change. People who gain wisdom from success and fail-forwards. People who are willing to share that new expertise with community leaders across the country because — together — it’s possible.

StriveTogether provides customized support, leadership development opportunities, resources, and tools along the way.

When we are willing to work not with community but in community, that is when transformation is possible.”

Stacey Abrams

Former Georgia state legislator and author

To join the Cradle to Career Network, communities complete a baseline assessment of their systems of support for kids and families. This assessment measures progress against the initial benchmarks of the StriveTogether Theory of Action™. Communities that meet the initial benchmarks are invited to join.

If your community doesn’t yet meet the criteria, we can support your path with resources and connections to similar communities. StriveTogether also offers customized coaching and support.
