Abstract
Opportunities for health and well-being start close to home.
They begin in our families, neighborhoods, schools, and jobs.
Despite philanthropy’s commitments to improve family economic security, stability, and growth, a lack of cross-sector
collaboration limits the impacts including constrained public
resources and siloed programmatic services. A new approach to address these challenges is the development of a framework that can more effectively tie together and
shape the disparate policies, investment structures, practices,
and stakeholders to leverage resources and impacts. The strategic framework of asset development helps to create an effective,
integrated, and sustainable system, enabling families to move
through safety nets into financial security and opportunity
