Convening week is here! I’m en route to San Francisco to gather with 600+ StriveTogether #CradleToCareer Network members and partners. This week, we’ll celebrate our achievements and plot a bold new course following our North Star. Follow along for updates at #ConveneC2C.
Too often, we set goals based on what we think is possible instead of what we know is necessary. It's time to be bolder. At #ConveneC2C last week, I shared StriveTogether's 2030 vision to put 4 million more young people on a path to economic mobility. strivetogether.org/jennifer-blatz…

The field of place-based partnerships is ever-evolving. Today, I join Partners for Rural Impact & William Julius Wilson Institute of Harlem Children's Zone at Purpose Built Communities's national conference to talk about what national collaboration means for neighborhoods.
