Status Updates
The Moon Shot for Social and Economic Mobility initiative is a partnership that will follow a program designed by EAB that focuses on systematically implementing a series of goals designed to enhance student social and economic mobility opportunities.
The greater Cincinnati/Northern Kentucky partnership was formalized on September 15, 2021. During the first 100 days of the effort, the partner institutions will build the necessary support system and infrastructure to start the work successfully. That work spans three phases:
- Discover: Assess where each institution is across key areas of practice and organization, then set priorities for work based on urgency and readiness.
- Engage: Connect with campus leaders to educate them on the priorities and understand their perspective. Then form the necessary leadership teams and working groups, and begin to structure the plan of action.
- Execute: Set plans into motion.
