Children's Aid Society: One organization, many partners

The age-old saying, "It takes a village to raise a child", never gets old at Community Optimization, and it certainly doesn't at the Children's Aid SocietyThe Children's Aid Society is known as an organization that "helps children in poverty to succeed and thrive." How do they do it? They've managed to create a village with numerous partners that help them provide services ranging from legal advocacy to after-school and family programs to name a few. To learn more about the work that the Children's Aid Society does, visit their website http://www.childrensaidsociety.org/.

As has been said before on Community Optimization, partnerships create "villages." "Villages" work because the people in them support each other. Likewise, the Children's Aid Society gets around children and families and gives them the support they need. A "village" more proof that the problems of society cannot be solved alone. A problem's complexities require engaging many strengths amongst many sectors.
