Abstract

Proving children with the tools to become educated, employed, and engaged members of society is the job of our entire community. No single entity or group can solve the challenges that face our students, our families, our schools, or our community. It takes commitment from all sectors—education, business, community, higher ed, civic, and philanthropy. We all need to work together with shared accountability and high expectations for every child in Albany, regardless of background or circumstance.

The Albany Promise is a vehicle for changing the way adults collaborate to help children succeed. We provide a structure for change by building community capacity to understand what supports student success, and accelerate change by spreading what works across all programs and services. It’s an inclusive partnership where we are each responsible and accountable for the success of our students.

You’ll read more about The Albany Promise in this report—about our PROCESS—how we do our work and where we’re working; our ACTION—what’s been happening over the last twelve months; and our GRATITUDE—to all of those who have helped move the dial.
