SUCCESSFUL PARTNERSHIPS

Buy-in but uncoordinated:

‣ Competing for Resources

‣ Failure to agree on deadlines and ways of working

Coordinated and facing same way; lack momentum

‣ Promises without delivery ‣ Nobody “walks the talk” ‣ Only easy things get done ‣ Failure to Progress

Willing cooperation but lacks purpose ‣Inertia

‣Running in Circles ‣Teams going nowhere fast

‣Everyone headed in different directions

COLLECTIVE IMPACT: FIVE NECESSARY CONDITIONS

1. Common Agenda: Shared vision for change

2. Shared Measurement: Collecting data and measuring results

3. Mutually Reinforcing Activities: Differentiated while still being coordinated

4. Continuous Communication: Consistent and open communication

5. Backbone Organization: Coordination for the entire initiative and of participating organizations

The IPC pipeline is constructed through programs and services complementing and building on each other.

Results Based Accountability

POPULATION-LEVEL Population-Level Results

•What do we want for our community? (i.e. All children enter Kindergarten ready.) •Conditions of well-being for all (inspirational)

Population-Level Indicators •How are we doing to achieve our results? (i.e. number and percent of children ready for Kindergarten)

PROGRAM-LEVEL Strategies/Programs

•Theory of Change •What will we do to achieve results? (i.e. reading program, summer camps, etc)

Program Goals Performance Measures

•How are we doing to achieve program-level goals?

Families

Through the Imagination Library program, parents of young children receive monthly age-appropriate books. The program has shown to improve family reading habits and a parent's comfort level when reading with their child.

Parent educators are community workers trained in early childhood development who serve as key liaisons with mothers in the community, delivering resources and training in positive parenting practices.

A new program in 2015, the LINKS targeted families with children 0 to 5 years old with no access to formal early childhood setting. The program works to connect parents to resources and re-inforce positive parenting practices.

Policy Pre-K collaborative

Mississippi Department of Education implemented the MKAS monitoring system at the beginning of the 2014-2015 school year. All school districts in the state report k-readiness data using an aligned assessment--STAR Early Literacy.

The creation of the IPC literacy coalition brought together early childhood partners and stakeholders to raise awareness of the importance of reading and improve access to books and other resources in the community.

Programs

Parents as Teachers is an evidence-based maternal home-visitation program. The program provides information, support, and encouragement to parents during their child's crucial early years of life.

In 2014, Promise School participants were more likely to meet or exceed K-readiness benchmarks than non-participants. The summer K-readiness boot camp was expanded from 4 to 6 weeks in 2015.

As data became available to demonstrate the positive impact of multiple "doses" of IPC on K-readiness scores, IPC made an intentional effort to dually enroll participants in Imagination Library and other home visitation programs. Currently over 90% of SPARK and PAT participants are dually enrolled in Imagination Library.

Systems

Promise School was implemented by the school district in 2013. This created a smoother transition to Kindergarten, by allowing incoming students to adjust to the school environment and learn from their future Kindergarten teachers.

Save the Children became the Early Head Start and Head Start provider for Sunflower County. Delta Health Alliance and Save the Children partnered to expand home-based intervention to an additional 50 families in Sunflower County.

During this year, IPC facilitated the alignment of 7 of the 9 formal early childcare providers in Indianola, including private childcare providers, Head Start and the State's Pre-K collaborative. Almost all 4 year olds in formal care receive the same evidence-based curriculum and assessment.
