Partnerships Rooted in People, Purpose, and Possibility with Rich Harwood

mardi 7 juillet 2026 • Durée 32:00

In a recent Beyond The Blog podcast, Debra Jacobs, President and CEO of The Patterson Foundation, speaks with Rich Harwood, President and Founder of The Harwood Institute for Public Innovation, a nonprofit advancing positive community action by inspiring people and communities to turn outward.

Working with Rich Harwood and The Harwood Institute for more than a decade, The Patterson Foundation has provided the community with an additional tool for changing how it approaches challenges and developing innovative, collaborative partnerships that might not otherwise form. Through its Aspirations to Actions work in DeSoto County and North River Manatee County, as well as its book circles series, the Foundation has helped introduce new ways of thinking and working together.

Most interestingly, Debra and Rich pull back the curtains and share how the alignment of leadership, willingness, readiness, capacity, and culture amongst their two organizations has been critical to a successful and evolving partnership.

What You'll Learn in This Conversation:

Why people-centered approaches help communities move from identifying challenges to taking meaningful action together.
How alignment in leadership, culture, readiness, and shared values has sustained a successful partnership between The Patterson Foundation and The Harwood Institute for more than a decade.
The meaningful impact and ripple effects that can emerge when organizations invest in community-driven relationships, collaboration, and public innovation.

Engaging Young Readers: From Summer Slide to Summer Success with Ben Tollefson

lundi 22 juin 2026 • Durée 18:42

On this episode of Connecting Communities, host Leah Verier-Dunn sat with Ben Tollefson, consultant with The Patterson Foundation, to discuss the Suncoast Campaign for Grade Level Reading’s THIS BOOK IS COOL! program.

The summer slide is a real concern, particularly for our asset-limited families. Research spanning more than a century has shown that students can experience academic learning loss over the summer when they are not engaged in educational activities.

These losses can widen existing achievement gaps, making it even more difficult for students to stay on track academically. Without intervention, students may fall further behind year after year. SCGLR creates opportunities to prevent the “summer slide” and help close the achievement gap.

What Does Kindergarten Readiness Really Mean? Dr. Patti Folino Breaks It Down

mardi 24 mars 2026 • Durée 33:05

In this episode of Beyond the Blog, host Leah Verier-Dunn talks with Dr. Patti Folino, Principal of Tuttle Elementary School in Sarasota County, to explore what kindergarten readiness really means. With 38 years in education, Dr. Folino brings deep experience and insight into preparing young learners for success.

Together, they discuss how kindergarten readiness goes beyond letters and numbers to include independence, social-emotional development, problem-solving skills, and early language exposure. The conversation also highlights the role of family engagement, early learning programs, and community partnerships in supporting children before they ever step into a classroom.

Listeners will hear about:

Why independence and self-help skills matter as much as academics
How everyday routines can build confidence and resilience
The importance of early intervention and community resources

This conversation highlights how kindergarten readiness is truly a shared responsibility—one that brings together families, educators, and communities to help children thrive from the very start.
