Abstract

StriveTogether aimed to improve education outcomes by coordinating the actions of diverse community stakeholders-nonprofit service providers, school districts, government, parents, businesses and others. StriveTogether had an intense focus on collective impact-'the commitment of a group of important actors from different sectors to a common agenda for solving a specific social problem'-and the use of data to drive decision. In the case, managing director Jeff Edmondson is faced with two dilemmas: how to attract business engagement in the City Heights neighborhood of San Diego, California, and how to achieve greater results in the communities that had implemented the StriveTogether framework.
