For decades, Judy Dimon has been a transformative force in shaping how NYC schools build pathways for young people to succeed in the 21st century economy. Through her philanthropy, advocacy, and leadership of The James and Judith K. Dimon Foundation, Judy brings together business leaders, educators, nonprofits and government to scale high caliber models that equip students—better, faster and more affordably—to secure gainful employment, earn family sustaining incomes, advance their careers and lead lives of purpose. New Visions is proud to partner with The James and Judith K. Dimon Foundation, NYC Public Schools, and the Department of Youth and Community Development to produce actionable data about how well schools are sequencing, valuing and shaping best proven practices into “rungs within reach” that lead to measurably better education and employment outcomes. Student and school-level dashboards in the Portal empower stakeholders to make sense of information about engagement and outcomes. Now, everyone from school staff to system leaders has the information he or she needs to strengthen the access, quality and impact of the academic/career connected learning system for thousands of students and graduates across NYC.
Judy summarized New Visions’ contributions this way: “ We are very excited that New Visions allows us to understand and strengthen this work at scale. 100,000 young people and their employers stand to benefit. This is unprecedented. ” We are so grateful to partner with Judy and The Dimon Foundation to maximize success for students and their employers.
