Since their first meeting six years ago, Alec Greenwald from Duke University and Yolanda Dunston from North Carolina Central University have been united in a shared vision: Supporting public schools that serve as hubs of opportunity, healing and innovation. Through the university-assistance framework, Duke and NCCU act as a unified partner for local public schools, providing targeted support based on direct input from the school’s community, including its students, families and teachers. The partnership helps facilitate the integration of university-assisted academic programs and social services, and demonstrates how when universities join together, they can use collective resources to strengthen local communities.
