I focus on helping organizations design or improve their programs to reach better outcomes for the families they serve. I have special expertise in bringing a two-generation (sometimes called whole-family) lens to the work. This approach builds family well-being by intentionally and simultaneously working with children and the adults in their lives together. It addresses critical components such as early childhood education, post-secondary and employment pathways, economic assets, health and mental health, K-12 education, and social capital. My experience includes working on the ground innovating, designing, and implementing; collaborating with researchers on program evaluation; managing a multi-site demonstration program; identifying and analyzing public policy barriers; providing training and technical assistance; and developing a funding strategy to support community-based organizations.
