The John W. Gardner Center for Youth and Their Communities, part of the Stanford Graduate School of Education, is a research center which works directly with communities to develop leadership and implement change to improve the lives of youth. The organization's session, From Data to Action: A Community Approach to Improving Youth Outcomes,discusses strategies featured in its new book of the same title.
The book reveals methods of bringing together practitioners and policymakers in education, health, and child welfare to form a data-based collaboration focused on improving the lives of youth. By focusing on data, members of the partnership are able to move beyond long-held beliefs to focus on making specific, measurable improvements in the lives of the youth in their communities.

Gardner Center is among the leading organizations in this space for collaborating with communities to create lasting outcomes for youth," said Ananda Roberts, president of nFocus Solutions.
