Based at the Johns Hopkins University Everyone Graduates Center, The Partnership for Student Success supports a nationwide effort in local and state communities across the country to bring evidence-based and people-powered support to all students. We bring together experts and practitioners in education, national service, and youth development to support locally-driven implementation of tutoring, mentoring, student success coaching, postsecondary transition coaching, wraparound/integrated student supports, and other evidence-based practices that support children and youth. We do this through:

• Creating enabling conditions for local collaborations between school districts, nonprofits, higher education institutions, and state/local government to work together to provide all students with the supports they need to succeed.
• Leading strategic efforts to engage specific populations–such as older adults, college students, high school students, AmeriCorps members, or corporate volunteers–in jobs, volunteer roles, and career-connected learning opportunities providing P-12 students with evidence-based supports, as tutors, mentors, student success, coaches, postsecondary transition coaches, wraparound support coordinators and other support roles.
• Organizing solutions networks and working groups to address pervasive challenges (e.g. chronic absenteeism) facing students and facilitate collaboration, information sharing, and learning between practitioners working toward shared solutions.
• Providing technical assistance and networking support to schools, districts, nonprofits, and state/local government to support implementation.
• Developing publicly available tools and resources to aid the implementation of evidence-based student supports.
• Conducting research on the use and reach of evidence-based and people-powered student supports nationwide.
