Putting Evidence into Action to Support Student Success

Join our coalition of nonprofits, higher education institutions, and school districts working to enable all students to get the evidence-based supports they need to succeed.

Based at the Johns Hopkins University Everyone Graduates Center, the Partnership for Student Success supports a nationwide effort in local and state communities across the country to bring evidence-based and people-powered support to all students. We bring together experts and practitioners in education, national service, and youth development to support locally-driven implementation of tutoring, mentoring, student success coaching, postsecondary transition coaching, wraparound/integrated student supports, and other evidence-based practices that support children and youth.
