Eastside Pathways

Community and partner engagement: building, repairing and sustaining relationships that reach across all sectors, from grass roots to grass tops is critical to this model. Outside of programming (cans, councils, taskforces) developing relationships in all sectors is the secondary priority as it relates to managing the partnership. As we seek to address the interdependencies within our system, this often includes hosting sessions to repair and/or strengthen relationships as well as convening partnership at a large scale to codify the partnership. Specific example: all partner meetings, ages & stages meetings.

Collaborative action network (can) support expenses: backbone staff and partner coordination to ensure continuous allocation and alignment of resources around agreed upon common goals and to improve outcomes. Supporting the daily management of the partnership including bodies of professionals in the areas of data, communications, diversity, equity, inclusion and belonging and leadership (councils). As well short-term response programs to address emergent issues in the community. Specific example: in 2024-2026 focus in early learning, high school and beyond, mental health and wellbeing, racial equity.
