Third Sector has engaged county and state governments, along with high-performing service providers, to assess the feasibility of outcomes-oriented contracts as a means to expand access, enhance quality, and improve outcomes of preschool and post-secondary services available to low income children as well as opportunity, out-of-school youth and adults.
Third Sector helps local stakeholders develop recommendations to improve priority outcomes such as academic achievement, social emotional development, and attendance in working to improve early education. For adult learners, Third Sector works to help providers provide flexibility for students and remove barriers, and support student pathways to post-secondary education and the workforce.
