On April 21, 2017 we held the Cradle to Career Community Summit attended by 200 community leaders. The state of Rochester education was conveyed via a data walk built by United Way. Cradle to Career was introduced to the community by Jeff Edmondson, Managing Director, StriveTogether and Charley Nelson, Executive Director, Every Hand Joined, Red Wing, MN.

Cradle to Career Planning Team
Immediately following the summit, a meeting was held with potential backbone partners. Jeff Edmondson led this session. 45 people were in attendance with these major outcomes:
-
Created a high-level plan to move forward via a planning team including participant groups, an elected facilitator, draft schedules and deliverables. The participant groups would be representatives of 15 cross-community entities.
Since this time, the Cradle to Career Rotary committee has invited leaders from those entities to participate in the planning session, created a charter and timeline. The community participants representing those entities are as follows:

As requested at the summit, this Cradle to Career Planning Team will build recommendations around a community vision, outcomes, indicators and a structure to drive the Cradle to Career initiative forward in a sustainable way. The team has held an initial kick-off meeting and laid out a high-level plan. The original backbone members, and the community will be asked to learn about, provide input and approve these recommendations preparing to formally launch the organizational structure and the work. After this time, the Cradle to Career planning team will phase out as the community approved structure launches.
The United Way will provide some interim administrative and communications support to the Cradle to Career Planning Team during this planning process. For example, the United Way will assist with the some of our more urgent items including communication support, such as this and subsequent newsletters, to help ensure transparency with the community about the work that is taking place.

Here are some things that you can do today as the planning team prepares the community recommendations:
