Project Purpose
Casey’s Evidence2Success project utilizes evidence-based programs to improve the well-being of children from low-income communities.
This magazine article spotlights the Casey Foundation’s Evidence2Success project, which aims to facilitate new partnerships between school and community leaders en route to improving the well-being of children in low-income areas.

The original article appeared in the Winter 2012 issue of Better: Evidence-based Education, a publication created by the Institute for Effective Education at the University of York and by the Center for Research and Reform in Education at Johns Hopkins University.
Evidence2Success pulls teachers and administrators into partnerships with parents, the community and public agencies to address the challenges that children face outside the classroom. By combining data from schools with feedback from children and their parents, these partnerships can take a closer look at important influences—both academic and non-academic—on a child’s behavior.
