At @AchieveAtlanta, we're working hard to keep students engaged and on track for #CollegeSuccess. And, our talented team works hard to gather and analyze data so we know what's working and where we have challenges. We share it in our 2021 Impact Report: achieveatlanta.org/publicati…

Research shows #leaders of #SocialChange organizations may be more likely to have experienced #Trauma, which, if not addressed, can impair their ability to foster #change. @TheWellbeingP & others are studying ways to help them #HealToLead. bit.ly/3Z5Slmx @SSIReview

This research reinforces our understanding that strong social skills are a #leader's most important qualification. I wonder how surviving #trauma impacts their development, especially for #Latinas & #BIPOC women. #HealToLead bit.ly/3YU0tqe via @HarvardBiz @raffasadun

#Entrepreneurship can be a #trauma response, Kelly Campbell shows via personal insights into how childhood trauma led her to found a company & affected her #leadership. It’s crucial that we understand how we can help people #HealToLead. bit.ly/3I6q6xV @Entrepreneur

Let's call on the #Georgia General Assembly to increase need-based aid to #CollegeStudents. Our state's economic future depends on more of our historically underserved students earning postsecondary degrees #CollegeSuccess @AJCGetSchooled guest column bit.ly/3jE6IOV @ajc

This #ultimama is SO proud!!

Evidence confirms what we suspected: #teens’ #MentalHealth declined during the #COVID19 pandemic & it’s led to #academic struggles. More than ever, we need to be conscious of the impact of #trauma on their lives. #education bit.ly/3UGGO9Y via @educationweek #HealtoLead

After 7 years as @AchieveAtlanta's Founding Executive Director, I will step down in January. Achieve Atlanta is in a strong place and poised for growth & I will begin a fellowship with @ALIHarvard. Read my letter: bit.ly/3B2OLzg

At @AchieveAtlanta, we've practiced staying connected to our bodies to understand our #emotions during #ToughConversations. As a #leader, I've taken the risk to name some of those emotions & now my team feels safe to do so, too. More in this video. #bevulnerable #HealToLead

Super-excited to have spoken to @waberosescott on "Closer Look" about @AchieveAtlanta's work helping #Atlanta Public Schools students achieve #CollegeSuccess & the gift from @mackenziescott! You can hear our conversation here: bit.ly/3Exix1D @wabeatl #EdEquity #highered

Research suggests that, during #COVID19, many young adults became less extroverted, open, agreeable & conscientious, more likely to view the world as distressing/unsafe. This is a reversal of typical development for that group.n.pr/3rKycmr @maggiejmertens @NPR @PLOSONE

Proud mama! Congratulations Franky Fernandez and ATL ultimate teammates!
