Addressing the conditions that impact students is in no way the sole responsibility of one entity. Nor could any single entity meet the expanding and deepening needs of our children. However, all institutions, organizations and individuals – governing boards, school staff, parents, students, community organizations, businesses, local, state and federal leaders, funders, public health, education, environment, juvenile justice, etc. – must accept a collective responsibility for the critical role they play in ensuring all students succeed.
