Responsive Support for Vulnerable Students and Families
This year, we took an AI-powered leap forward. Through Every Child and Family is Known , we provide data tools to help school staff support students and families living in shelters with needs from food to health care to tutoring. An internally-developed AI system allows us to elevate patterns in needs from tens of thousands of notes, enabling agency leaders to decide where and how to provide increased resources, while maintaining family privacy. The program has demonstrated positive impacts on students' attendance, Math and English proficiency, and connection to their school.
THIS IS THE KIND OF DATA WE’VE WANTED FOR 30 YEARS—BEING ABLE TO SEE AND TRACK FAMILY NEEDS SO WE CAN CHASE DOWN SOLUTIONS FOR THEM.
