Since 2009, more than 80 communities across the PNI network have planned and implemented results-focused, data-driven Promise Neighborhoods, scaling up to serving hundreds of thousands of children nationwide. While it will take a generation to fully realize the Promise Neighborhoods cradle-to-career vision in these communities, we are already seeing promising early results among communities implementing Promise Neighborhoods strategies. A snapshot of some of these early results is provided below:

• Berea College Knox Promise Neighborhood (Knox County, KY) - Between 2017 and 2018, kindergarten readiness amongst students living in the Knox Promise Neighborhood increased by more than 7 percentage points.
• Chula Vista Promise Neighborhood (Chula Vista, CA) - 92 percent of all children living in the neighborhood have a medical home -- a place where they can reliably receive medical care. Additionally, 92 percent of all assessed children demonstrate age-appropriate functioning.
• Deer Creek Promise Community (Washington County, MS) - Since its baseline year in 2017, the percentage of third-grade students in the neighborhood who score as proficient or advanced on the state of Mississippi’s reading assessment has more than doubled.
