The Campaign for Grade-Level Reading

The Campaign for Grade-Level Reading seeks to disrupt generational poverty by mobilizing communities to find solutions for one of the major obstacles in the pathway out of poverty — failure to read proficiently by the end of third grade.

Why a Two-Generation Approach

New research from Nobel-winning economist James Heckman demonstrates a 13% return on investment in high-quality early childhood for each year of a child’s life. And a college degree doubles a parent’s income. For families with young children who have an annual income of $25,000 or less, a $3,000 increase during the years of early childhood yields a 17 percent increase in adult earnings for those children. Recent brain research shows that the brains of new parents undergo major structural changes just as babies’ brains do. Studies also show that parents with health insurance are more likely to seek care for themselves and their children.

2Gen Opportunities in Housing Programs

15
  • 1. Create professional development strategies and performance measures that promote and

require enhanced case management and coaching that uses a strengths-based approach.

  • 2. Create strong partnerships between housing agencies and service providers that can bring

services on-site in assisted housing developments, leverage home visiting programs, and stabilize families during relocation and redevelopment initiatives.

  • 3. Use a trauma-informed approach and address mental health needs of children and parents

together using evidence-based approaches.

  • 4. Engage residents as leaders in designing and implementing new support systems or programs

(i.e. parent policy councils) to enhance social capital, ensure services reflect families’ needs and goals, and contribute to the sustainability of the efforts.

  • 5. Support long-term stability by ensuring assisted residents have time to build assets and address

economic challenges, including acknowledging and addressing benefit cliffs as they transition off assistance.

  • 6. Identify and develop partnerships with early childhood, K-12, and postsecondary systems to

increase trust and engagement and address attendance and social-emotional learning.
