In early December, a small group representing the Rocky Mountain Partnership Cradle to Career network and community participated in the national kickoff of the Advancing Opportunities for Adolescents (AOA) Initiative in NYC.
This initiative aligns with our shared work and High Impact Project (HIP) #1: Redesign Navigation and Out of School Time, ensuring young people can access interest aligned opportunities and trusted guidance wherever they show up.
Thank you to The Wallace Foundation for convening this initial kickoff and to our partners who joined. We’re looking forward to engaging the full HIP partnership as we move into collaborative design and incubation, building on this early momentum together.
