Abstract | The Community Achievement Project in the Schools (CAPS) is a public-private partnership between the United Way of New York City and the New York City Board of Education. As part of a dropout prevention initiative, CAPS is designed to integrate the services of community-based organizations and schools. The Teachers College of Columbia University has conducted summative and formative evaluations of CAPS and its management. As part of the 1992-93 evaluation, six CAPS partnership sites were selected for more in-depth case study. All of these partnerships had been identified early in the collaboration as promising sites for cooperation between community-based organizations (CBOs) and schools. Two of the six CBOs had African-American leadership; two had Latino; and two had Caucasian leadership. Case studies provided strong evidence that students are well-served by these partnerships. The characters of the partnerships varied considerably. Each partnership solved some problems effectively, but faced continuous limitations on effectiveness in some identified areas. A 15-item bibliography suggests further reading. Contains 10 references. (SLD) |
