Building Collective Power to Strengthen Collaboration

<p>In this episode, we talk about building “collective power,” including what it means to build collective power and what factors can contribute to building it. <br /><br />To explore those questions and more, we learn about the Child Care NEXT coalition and how through advocacy work, they have developed a culture of collective power amongst their wide spectrum of partners and advocates. Joining us for this conversation is <strong>Alissa Marchant </strong>from Innovation Network and <strong>Jacy Montoya Price</strong> from Alliance for Early Success. They discuss several of the factors that have been most helpful in supporting a culture of collective power, and what challenges they have faced along the way.<br /><br /><strong>References and Footnotes</strong></p><ul><li><a href="https://earlysuccess.org/childcarenext">Child Care NEXT</a></li><li><a href="https://earlysuccess.org/">Alliance for Early Success</a></li><li><a href="https://www.innonet.org/">Innovation Network</a></li></ul><p><strong>More on Collective Impact</strong></p><p>Infographic: <a href="https://www.collectiveimpactforum.org/what-is-collective-impact/" target="_blank">What is Collective Impact?</a><br />Resource List: <a href="https://www.collectiveimpactforum.org/getting-started/" target="_blank">Getting Started in Collective Impact</a></p><p>The Intro music, entitled “Running,” was composed by Rafael Krux, and can be found <a href="https://filmmusic.io/song/5434-running/">here</a> and is licensed under <a href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/">CC: By 4.0.</a></p><p>The outro music, entitled “Deliberate Thought,” was composed by <a href="https://incompetech.com/">Kevin Macleod</a>.
