Who We Are

“The expectation that collaboration can occur without a supporting infrastructure, is one of the most frequent reasons why it fails. The backbone organization requires a dedicated staff separate from the participating organizations who can plan, manage, and support the initiative through ongoing facilitation, technology and communications support, data collection and reporting, and handling the myriad logistical and administrative details needed for the initiative to function smoothly.”

“I believe that Marin Promise is the answer we have been waiting for - using a proven, successful model of collaboration and data-driven decision-making to make real system-wide change. We need to rethink ‘business as usual’ because it isn’t working.”

”Thanks everyone, for an uplifting meeting. In all the stress and anxiety on a variety of fronts, it is the relationships that we share that are truly the bright spot.”

“The Action Team is a huge support as all of the high school’s in the county and the College Access agencies have a place and time to meet, share ideas, and develop common strategies. The facilitator is invaluable!”

"Marin Promise Partnership assembles leadership tables for collaboration and action that bring together groups who typically have not been invited to the table."

Our Community Center has a very active Equity Committee that is connected to a Lagunitas School Equity Committee and a San Geronimo Valley Equity Committee. Much of this had its roots in our involvement with Marin Promise Partnership.
