Impact of Community and Youth Organizing on Public School Reform
ORGANIZED COMMUNITIES, STRONGER SCHOOLS
THE IMPACT OF COMMUNITY AND YOUTH ORGANIZING ON PUBLIC SCHOOL REFORM
These free tools developed by the Institute are a series of research-based workshops that focus on community organizing strategies in four communities. Through a “jigsaw” reading-and-discussion activity, each workshop helps participants understand the organizing efforts of one community, explore the implications those efforts may have on their own community, and identify next steps they want to take.

JIGSAW ACTIVITY WORKSHOPSA Community Concern is a documentary that shows the powerful changes that happen when organizers, parents, and youth work with educators to improve urban public schools. Companion materials are being developed.

Note: To conduct a workshop, the facilitator will need to download the facilitator's guide PDF, the PowerPoint presentation and video ZIP file, and the case study PDF.
Important: When you open the ZIP file, the PowerPoint file and two video files (1 and 2) will be in the same folder. To be able to show the PowerPoint and the videos correctly, be sure to keep them in the same folder after you download them. You will be prompted in the PowerPoint when to show the two videos. If you do not have PowerPoint installed on your computer, you will need to download Microsoft's free PowerPoint Viewer.
