Resources
We share resources widely to promote community learning in service of successful, healthy students throughout North Carolina.
The North Carolina Community Schools Coalition works closely with partners and community-engaged researchers to develop and share evidence-based information. The goal of these resources is to help support the health and academic success of North Carolina students, families, and communities, and to promote fair access to education services across our state.
