Building Systems Change

While Thriving Youth and Resilient Families serve schools and programs directly, Sustained Impact operates at the systems level—supporting the policymakers, strategic partners, and researchers who shape the infrastructure for youth and family wellbeing.

This is where we bring comprehensive evaluation, continuous quality improvement, and shared measurement frameworks to county and regional systems—enabling them to see across programs, learn from data, and demonstrate impact to stakeholders.

The result is a comprehensive approach to systems-building that enables counties, government agencies, philanthropic organizations, policy initiatives, and research institutions to achieve measurable, sustained outcomes.
