Partnership for Resilience
GOLD (Growing Organizational Leadership Development) Within will create a dynamic team of leaders dedicated to carrying out the Partnership for Resilience’s vision of an Illinois where systems support schools, families and communities working together. Once fully equipped and well resourced, leading with a clear vision and a solid skill set, Partnership for Resilience staff will be incentivized and ready to bring together schools, unions, families, students, local government leaders, and community agencies, to create a Children's Council.

It will be well-positioned to identify barriers that prevent children from thriving and propose new solutions to address those barriers.
