2018 Impact Summit

The Flint & Genesee Literacy Network (FGLN) has jointly applied Results-Based Accountability and the 5 Conditions of Collective Impact to build strong community partnerships. These partnerships are focused on achieving community-level results through a multi-tiered system of accountability, inclusive of community-level indicators and performance-level metrics. In this presentation, FGLN's Executive Director, Ja'Nel Jamerson, and Community Impact Coordinator, Jeremiah White, will walk participants through their experience of using community-level indicators to drive decision-making, create partner and program alignment, and consistently use data to get from talk to action; drive program development and improvement; and positive community-level impact. Participants will also see how the Network uses the new data to continuously inform and advocate for parents as the child's most important teacher and shape the work of the Network and its partners. Finally, participants will complete a hands-on exercise to adopt FGLN's results-driven approach in their own community.
