Community Assessment Framework:
A Guide for Organizing Data and Developing Strategies
for Strong School-Community Partnerships
If communities are to design seamless, integrated services for children and families, they must conduct a comprehensive assessment of current partnerships, gaps in programs and services, barriers to creating partnerships, and successful models.
Building upon the work of LEFs and national organizations,
PEN has developed a framework for a data collection in
five core areas:
- Quality Education
- Family Supports
- Child and Youth Development
- Family and Community Engagement
- Community Development
The four steps listed on the right help organizations
make sense of what is known and start planning a community
approach to meet the needs of children and families. |
