9 Years. 45 Alliance Members. Significant Results for Students.

Laser-focused on sharing results and taking action, the 2018 Annual Convening featured shorter plenaries, more concurrent sessions, more dedicated time for teams to interact with content experts and with each other, and more focus on building the interventions that will make the greatest difference in participants’ states, systems and institutions.
