2024 City Connects Progress Report
City Connects is pleased to release its 2024 Progress Report. The studies presented in this report provide new evidence of positive outcomes resulting from the City Connects intervention.
As City Connects expands to serve an ever-growing number of students and families across the United States and in Dublin, Ireland, we continue to build our evidence base. We are encouraged by these findings.
We are grateful to the City Connects Coordinators, Program Managers, and implementation partners who bring City Connects to their communities.
We are thankful for the support and partnership of schools and communities across the U.S. (in Massachusetts, Ohio, Minnesota, Indiana, and New York) and in Dublin, Ireland. We are grateful to the superintendents, administrators, principals, teachers, student support professionals, school staff, data liaisons, and others who have helped to introduce and implement City Connects in their communities and supported this work in their schools.
We are thankful to our university partners in implementation: the National Centre for City Connects Ireland at Mary Immaculate College in Limerick, Ireland and the Center for Vibrant Schools at Marian University in Indianapolis, Indiana. Through these partnerships, we have established regional centers allowing City Connects to expand thoughtfully, and with fidelity, to distant locations.
We are extremely grateful to our vast network of community partners, who make it possible to deliver tailored supports, services, and enrichment opportunities to children and their families.聽
We are deeply appreciative of the longstanding support of 艾可直播 College and the Lynch School of Education and Human Development. We are grateful to each of the generous foundations and donors who have supported our work for more than 20 years.

Their continuing commitment to City Connects has allowed us to serve thousands of students in our hometown of 艾可直播 and has enabled our expansion into additional schools across Massachusetts, into new states, and to our first international site in Dublin, Ireland.
We remain deeply grateful to an anonymous donor, whose significant endowment gift to our Center in late 2021 has ensured that our work will continue long into the future.聽The support for our mission from a broad base of foundations, government sources, individuals, and organizations has allowed us to continue this critical work.聽
