Place-Based Strategies

Network Anaheim

Founded in 2014 as a Place-Based Strategy, Network Anaheim works to connect people across the city that are working to make positive community changes. Place-based approaches are highly collaborative and involve a range of partners working together on complex problems. Network Anaheim brings together community members, nonprofit partners, school districts, businesses and other partners to create equitable opportunities for all children and families to thrive. Network Anaheim leverages numerous strategies—from strengthening Family Resource Centers as service hubs, to gathering key data on child and family well-being, to engaging community residents as leaders.

Network Anaheim works with other Community Based Organizations, the city of Anaheim, residents and others focused on system and program delivery change.
