Welcome to the Toolkit!

Communities can consult these resources in their efforts to build the capacity of their individual initiatives and the larger network. Expanding on the resources available on the federal Promise Neighborhoods website, the toolkit includes additional information sources tailored to CPNN’s goals and priorities.

The toolkit serves as a repository of technical assistance resources, funding opportunities, and promising practices and models that have been curated from the collective experience and expertise from across the California Promise Neighborhoods.

This comprehensive resource is designed to enhance the efficacy and collaboration of CPNN members by supporting the collective efforts of the network in achieving lasting, positive outcomes for children, families and communities across California.
