CLC Operating Principles
CLC Operating Principles
Collaboration
Partnerships are the best way to maximize resources and create synergy. Partners will work for and with families, neighborhoods, and one another to ensure local strengths and needs are considered. Partnership involves a commitment to mutual relationships and goals.
Integration
CLC services will be connected and purposefully coordinated with school and community to assure an efficient and respected use of partners’ expertise and resources.
Lifelong Learning Culture
People learn and grow differently. Through professionally developed staff CLCs will account for these different learning styles and will promote learning opportunities for all children, youth, families, and neighborhood residents.
Outcome Focused
CLCs have greater impact when providing services which are aligned with CLC initiative goals. Service effectiveness will be measured by improvements in student learning and development, stronger families, and healthier neighborhoods.
Community Leadership
Leadership and accountability are shared among all stakeholders. Parents and neighborhood residents have multiple opportunities to partner in decision making and to determine service opportunities most beneficial to them.
Neighborhood Based
All neighborhoods have unique strengths and needs. CLCs value the uniqueness of each neighborhood and adapt services and opportunities so that the neighborhood capacity is optimized.
