June 12 Lunch Program

“It Takes a Village: A Collective Impact Case Study of the St. Louis Regional Early Childhood Council

” with Elizabeth George, Vice President, Deaconness Foundation

Most of us in nonprofit know how hard it can be to draw attention to and inspire community advocacy for our causes. The nearly 100% volunteer-run St. Louis Regional Early Childhood Council leads the effort to build a comprehensive system addressing the full range of early childhood needs for all St. Louis area children. Learn how they did it and what a difference it makes when you create your own village.
