Advancing and implementing education policies that support states, communities, schools, and their nonprofit partners’ efforts are critical in accelerating improvements that can expand opportunity, achievement, and success for all students.

Employers need and want a well-trained, motivated, diverse workforce at every level, from frontline to executives. To meet this need demands that we rethink the way we invest public resources as well as learn from what is identified to work and expand upon that work to enable students, youth, and adults from all backgrounds to succeed economically.

By paying for success, governments have the ability to support high-impact service providers; drive resources to effective social programs; and track outcomes, not just outputs, for individuals and communities. This structure helps government to more effectively and efficiently provide services to those in need.
