YDEKC BELIEVES THAT YOUNG PEOPLE YDEKC VISION DESERVE EVERY OPPORTUNITY TO LEARN, LEAD, CONNECT, CONTRIBUTE AND THRIVE.

The Vision: We want every child and youth in South King County and South Seattle, THE ROAD MAP particularly those who are low-income or of color, to thrive in their education, communities and life. The Goal: Through multisector collaboration, the Road Map Project aims to increase equitable policies and practices in education systems to eliminate opportunity and achievement gaps, and for 70 percent of its region’s youth to earn a college or career credential by 2030.

WHOLE CHILD, WHOLE DAY “Whole child” meaning the focus is on social, emotional and academic development (SEAD). “Whole day” meaning that alignment and intentionality of SEL supports must span a child’s whole day, in collaboration with families, communities, and schools.
