  • Learn more about the Alliance for Place-based Education.

  • Before you can fully appreciate place-based education, ground yourself in two supporting frameworks: Adulting Model of Supports (ARMS) and Positive Youth Development (PYD).

  • One of our sister organizations--South Dakota 4-H--asked us to design an infographic series to convey the 'why message' for the 4-H program.  The Public Outcomes Visual Series (POVS) is the result.

Projects on the way
  • Completion of the ARMS descriptors + checklist of readiness indicators within the ARMS.

  • A new higher education model that marries the best of existing liberal arts and career preparation approaches with the growing 'side hustle' movement.

  • An easily doable public high school sports model that centers on place-based PYD principles.

A visual reminder of why we do this important work...
