NOW Playbook
Transformative Community Capacity to Advance Equity
We are excited to share the Vital Village Networks of Opportunity for Child Wellbeing (NOW) Playbook.
The NOW Playbook is a resource guide designed to provide tools for local leaders, community coalitions and networks, educators, practitioners, and policymakers working to promote the wellbeing of children and families, advance equity, and align systems of care and education in early childhood.
The models, pillars, and frameworks outlined in the playbook were developed in collaboration with residents and partner organizations in Boston and through the NOW strategic planning process, which engaged stakeholders across the nation to identify key levers of community change.
Between 2018 and 2020, multi-sector leadership teams from 10 peer communities across the US engaged in the NOW Learning Community. This playbook distills elements of their learning journeys and highlights recommendations, additions, and extensions pioneered by the NOW peer communities based on their use of these resources in action.
We invite you to join us in authoring a new social story of the invaluable and essential leadership of caregivers and communities for a just and equitable future. We hope you are inspired to extend and share these lessons.
