Ready by 21 Highlighted at the Corporate Voices Annual Meeting

Corporate Voices for Working Families, a Ready by 21 National Partner, held their Annual Meeting for corporate members and partners May 5 – 6, 2010, in Washington, D.C. Ready by 21 was highlighted through handouts, a survey and Ready by 21 Networking Tables and a Ready by 21 Panel. Sara Toland and Jennifer Weber of Corporate Voices conducted Ready by 21 Networking sessions to inform corporate attendees about Ready by 21 and how they could get involved in the work. Corporate partners offered positive feedback on these working sessions. Ready by 21 was brought to life through the telling of Louisville’s public/private leader partnership accomplishments. Mary Gwen Wheeler, Kathy Zandona and Deborah Williams of Louisville participated in the panel; Ready by 21 staff and partners agreed that this particular panel clarified what Ready by 21 is and how it can help a community. The panel did a wonderful job highlighting how the Ready by 21 Challenge and Partnership will lead to greater successes for their community.
