A Good Thing Growing
This report by author Andy Goodman captures the experiences of the three organizations—Citizen Schools, Harlem Children’s Zone and Roca, Inc.—that received the first EMCF grants under the Foundation's new youth development strategy. By documenting their stories over the past decade, EMCF hopes to help practitioners, funders and policymakers striving to expand other promising programs. How these three grantees have grown and what they have accomplished show the potential of our nation's nonprofits and their funders to turn around the lives of our most vulnerable youth.
