Book excerpt: This document sums up the lessons to be learned from 3 years of Ford Foundation's Innovations Awards program activity. The eight programs described herein represent new ways of solving complex problems--from segregated neighborhoods to school dropouts. Each case has unique qualities: the novel idea and the particular circumstances that shaped the way the idea is put into action. Missouri's Parents as Teachers program, inspired by a St. Louis training program for parents of children under age 3, succeeded because of an active coalition of public officials, voluntary organization representatives, university-based researchers, and the governor. Shaker Heights (Ohio) has joined with two other cities (Cleveland Heights and University Heights), and two school districts to devise a multijurisdictional, metropolitan-wide strategy to promote and maintain integration in the eastern Cleveland suburbs. The three cities and the suburban coalition affirmatively market houses to people underrepresented in a designated area. The innovation depends on a partnership spanning all sectors of society and on multijurisdictional support for common objectives. The Family Learning Center at Leslie Public Schools (Ingham County, Michigan) packages comprehensive educational and support services for teenage parents from seven rural school districts. The center, which offers the normal high school curriculum and graduates 90 percent of its students, is supported by state education funds and foundation grants. Five noneducational innovations in Minnesota, Missouri, Illinois, Georgia, and California are also described. Awards for 1986-88 are listed. (MLH)

This book was released on 2008-06-13 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In early 2007, the Institute of Medicine convened the Roundtable on Health Disparities to increase the visibility of racial and ethnic health disparities as a national problem, to further the development of programs and strategies to reduce disparities, to foster the emergence of leadership on this issue, and to track promising activities and developments in health care that could lead to dramatically reducing or eliminating disparities. The Roundtable's first workshop, Challenges and Successes in Reducing Health Disparities, was held in St. Louis, Missouri, on July 31, 2007, and examined (1) the importance of differences in life expectancy within the United States, (2) the reasons for those differences, and (3) the implications of this information for programs and policy makers.

Download or read book Rebuilding Cleveland written by Diana Tittle and published by Ohio State University Press. This book was released on 1992 with total page 337 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rebuilding Cleveland is a critical study of the role that The Cleveland Foundation, the country's oldest community trust, has played in shaping public affairs in Cleveland, Ohio, over the past quarter-century. Drawing on an examination of the Foundation's private papers and more than a hundred interviews with Foundation personnel and grantees, Diana Tittle demonstrates that The Cleveland Foundation, with assets of more than $600 million, has provided continuing, catalytic leadership in its attempts to solve a wide range of Cleveland's urban problems. The Foundation's influence is more than a matter of money, Tittle shows. The combined efforts of professional philanthropists and a board of trustees traditionally dominated by Cleveland's business elite, but also including members appointed by various elected officials, have produced innovative civic leadership that neither group was able to achieve on its own. Through an examination of the Foundation's ongoing and sometimes painful organizational development, Tittle explains how the Foundation came to be an important catalyst for progressive change in Cleveland. Rebuilding Cleveland takes the reader back to 1914, when Cleveland banker Frederick C. Goff invented the concept of a community foundation and pioneered a national movement of social scientists, business leaders, and government officials that made philanthropy a more effective force for private involvement in public affairs. Tittle follows the Foundation through the 1960s, when it began a major new initiative to establish itself as a civic agenda-setter and problem solver, to the present, as a new generation of Foundation leaders continues to build upon this renewed sense ofpurpose.
