WHY

A Paradigm Shift

​In order to create lasting solutions to social problems on a large-scale, organizations - including those in government, civil society, and the business sector - need to coordinate their efforts and work together around clearly defined goals.

Collective Impact is a significant shift from the social sector's current paradigm of "isolated impact," because the underlying premise of Collective Impact is that no single organization can create large-scale, lasting social change alone. There is no "silver bullet" solution to systemic social problems, and these problems cannot be solved by simply scaling or replicating one organization or program. Strong organizations are necessary but not sufficient for large-scale social change.


​WHAT

 HELPING THOSE WHO HELP OTHERS
​As a network of 80+ organizations, we lead three major efforts: 
     
1. COLLECTIVE ACTION: Based on collective research, we coordinate plans that address the needs of vulnerable populations in the fields of education, employment, healthcare, housing and transportation. 
VIEW RESEARCH

2. UNDERSTANDING POVERTY: Based on the Bridges Out of Poverty, we teach a framework and constructs designed to bring people of all economic classes, races, sectors, and political persuasions to the table to address causes of poverty and create a sustainable community. VIEW WORKSHOPS

3. 903HELP.ORG: 
An online social services directory to ensure people can easily find help in times of need. Anyone with access to the internet, whether on a desktop, tablet, or smartphone is able to use 903HELP.  VISIT 903HELP.ORG

As a network we provide two functions: 
​​
1. ENGAGEMENT & FOCUS: Engage the community, research needs, coordinate plan, and measure impact. 

2. SUPPORT ACTION: Knowledge Share, Facilitation & Brokering, Capacity Building, Advocacy, and Project Management.
