RFA evaluated a grant that the Donors’ Education Collaborative (DEC) in New York City awarded to a set of advocacy and organizing groups. The grant supported the development of a coalition focused on influencing the debate over New York City school governance. RFA examined how these groups worked collaboratively to develop strategies that shaped the terms and outcomes of the debate.

Jeffrey Henig of Teachers College, Columbia University joined RFA in this effort.
