The evidence-based strategies in this volume close the achievement
gap among students from all sociological backgrounds. Designed
according to local needs assessments, they provide the services,
programs, initiatives, and relationships that are crucial for
children's success in school and life. These practices and programs
include afterschool and summer sessions, early-childhood education,
school-linked health and mental health services, family engagement,
and youth leadership opportunities. This book addresses the policy
and funding requirements that help these partnerships thrive and
offers effective counterarguments against those who would question
their value. The text describes strategies that work in both rural
and urban contexts and includes a chapter evaluating
school-community partnerships across the world. Because it involves
collaborations across professions and organizations, the book's
interdisciplinary approach will appeal to those in social work,
education, psychology, public health, counseling, nursing, and
public policy.
A Pride and Prejudice "What If?" Story... This retelling of Pride
and Prejudice asks "what if" events prevented Fitzwilliam Darcy
from proposing to Elizabeth Bennet that day at Hunsford parsonage?
Darcy arrives with marriage on his mind, only to find Elizabeth has
just received news her father is critically ill and not expected to
live. In the process of offering his help to her in traveling home,
Darcy discovers what she really thinks of him-and it's not good.
Should Darcy deliver Elizabeth home to be with her family and then
disappear from her life, or should he propose another kind of help?
Will Elizabeth be willing to sacrifice her future happiness to save
her family from financial ruin? Or, do she and Darcy, two very
stubborn people, have a chance of finding happiness together?
