There were many inspiring moments at the @CenOHCompact #CompactSummit this week. But there was also this fact:
24% of children under age 5 in #FranklinCounty live in poverty
#Ohio kids deserve our help. This is a call to action for rapid investment in #EarlyEd. #STEMstartsearly
AS SEEN AT #CompactSummit: @columbus2020's @KennyMcDon talked about inclusive economic development and how companies looking to set up operations want to know more than available space. They're interested in homelessness rates, work commutes and struggling schools, too.
If these are our glory days as a community, what is our contribution going to be?
@cscc_edu @DHarrisonCSCC moderated a discussion with @columbus2020's @KennyMcDon and @colsfoundation @DougKridler about a vision of the region's future at the #CompactSummit.
"#EconomicDevelopment without investment in human development is unsustainable. We need a #community where everyone has an #opportunity to thrive."
Thoughtful and inspiring discussions about #InclusiveGrowth and a new Flourishing Framework at the @CenOHCompact #CompactSummit
Inclusive economic development. A flourishing framework for the community's well-being. What does that mean for the future of the region? @DHarrisonCSCC moderates the conversation with @columbus2020 Kenny McDonald and @colsfoundation @DougKridler. #compactsummit
To further the discussion about the path forward, @colsfoundation's @DougKridler talks about how human development is an important component to economic development. Thus the work behind the "Flourishing Framework."

.@columbus2020's Kenny McDonald talks about inclusive economic development in Central Ohio. "We have an awesome product to sell. We are becoming a pretty big competitor for folks that didn't think of us as a competitor before." #compactsummit
Here's the poverty rate by education attainment level. How can we ensure more youth complete their education and escape poverty? #CompactSummit
One picture shows Columbus' poverty rate in 1980. Another shows the poverty rate in 2017. The darker the color, the higher the poverty rate. #CompactSummit
Here are some sobering stats from @UWCO Lisa Courtice's presentation. This map of CBUS breaks down race under the age 24. Blue = white residents. Red = black residents.
"Kids are growing up more racially segregated than the overall population." #CompactSummit
This year's #CompactSummit agenda features a discussion about non-academic barriers students face outside of school with @UWCO's Lisa Courtice and @Mid_OHFoodbank's Matt Habash.
In an update about #CCP, @OhioHigherEd shares a breakdown of enrollment data by race. Leaders say there is still work to be done to meet participation goals for black, Latino and impoverished students. #compactsummit
Having grown up in Central Ohio, I’m impressed by all the ways our community is leveraging resources to help all people thrive #CompactSummit
Central Ohio educators, we have to increase the participation and success rate for underrepresented Ss in CCP and advanced courses @ReynSchools @ESCCentralOhio #CompactSummit
New WDBCO Board member Lisa Courtice talking about the increase in poverty in Franklin County #compactsummit
Given the cost of living in our region, about 30% of us cannot afford basic economic needs. An astounding stat! Education is the answer. @CenOHCompact #CompactSummit
Leaders from @OhioHigherEd share updates on the Ohio Guaranteed Transfer Pathways, where students earning an associate degree can transfer to a four-year institution for their bachelor's degree. Close to 36K students transfer each year for a savings of $80 million. #CompactSummit
