1. Describe process for results work and timeline around developing baselines and targets
2. Describe results and indicators already underway. Fred will bring report to August meeting
3. Core capacities

Open comment

Expectation that work would be concluded by end of year
- Look at indicators
- Are they measurable
- Getting baseline data
- Developing targets
Look at city, region, county as target “close-the-gap strategy.” How to get school performance in LSA up to par with city, county, or region

Broadly shared vision anchored by results and vision for children and families
Growing constituency of residents engaged
Within and across sector strategies
Public systems and service providers modify work
Develop and sustain strong data and info systems
Sites have necessary infrastructure to sustain neighborhood transformation process

Do people have ideas about how to present outcomes
- Could do some interesting graphic depiction of outcomes
- Need to think about depicting outcomes in different ways for different audiences
Need to decide when we revisit priorities and how we revise list
AECF outcomes not likely to change over ten years. How LSA priorities to work should be flexible. Need periodic review and adjustment. Hope it’s all fluid and we can adapt to changing circumstances
Will need to set aside time to discuss staffing structures
