Promise Neighborhoods Funding Alert
The Promise Neighborhoods program needs your voice. The Senate voted to fund the program next year for just $20 million, far below President Obama’s $210 million request.
With Congress home for summer recess, PolicyLink is urging its network to visit their representatives in-person to demand Congress fully fund Promise Neighborhoods. Click here to read the new PolicyLink “Recess in a Box,” a step-by-step guide to making your in-district meeting successful.
All children deserve Promise Neighborhoods that enable them to learn, grow, and succeed.
The Promise Neighborhoods Institute at PolicyLink is here to help. An independent, foundation-supported resource, the Institute offers tools, information, and strategies to assist any community interested in participating in the U.S. Department of Education’s Promise Neighborhoods program. The Institute will provide technical support for planning, identifying quality approaches, building partnerships, assessing needs, and many more essentials for successfully responding to the federal Promise Neighborhoods application.
