Community Partners
Place-based Partnerships
One of our central initiatives is to build and support sustainable place-based partnerships between community-based organizations and more formal educational institutions. This initiative builds on the longstanding and nationally recognized work in the School of Education by providing incentives and support for researchers and baby直播app to locate their work in three initial baby直播app communities: Lafayette, near northeast (NNE) Denver, and Northeast baby直播app. We aim to develop long-lasting and sustainable relationships across research projects located in a few geographic areas to ensure there is a greater impact and sustainability over time.
Our new place-based partnerships initiative began with a competitive seed grants program in 2017 to encourage creative and synergistic scholarship, professional development, and community-engaged work across roles and disciplines. From the first request for proposals, three promising proposals were selected. These grants encourage partnerships in teacher education, work with districts and communities in professional development in and out of schools, community-engaged work, research, and policy.
