Abstract
This resource represents a collaborative effort to take the best information from a variety of
sources and develop a tool that could be used among organizations advancing two-generation
approaches to address the needs of families. Gary Romano of Civitas Strategies and Shelley
Waters Boots of SWB Strategic Solutions drafted the tool. Gail Hayes, former director of the
Casey Foundation’s Atlanta Civic Site team, was an integral thought leader on this project,
providing important insights on content and framing throughout the development of the tool and
conducting pilot tests with staff and parents at two organizations. Patrice Cromwell provided
overall leadership for the project with input and assistance from a number of Foundation
colleagues, including Leah Austin, Rosa Maria Castañeda, Kweku Forstall, Arin Gencer, Bob
Giloth, Cindy Guy, Patrick Hain, Gena O'Keefe, Irene Lee, Amoretta Morris, Kimberly Spring,
Nonet Sykes, Danielle Torain and T'Pring Westbrook. Expert advisors and consultants Karen
Murrell and Kellie Magnuson provided additional input and advice.
