Strategic Plan

Regional Target Champion Approach

What Are Regional Target Champions? 

Regional Target Champions are key groups or organizations that set and commit to population-level goals aligned with at least one Cradle to Career milestone.
They determine how many more children and young people will meet Cradle to Career outcomes as a direct result of their efforts. They set targets that contribute directly to RMP’s shared regional goal of enabling 71,000 additional young people up to age 35 to meet Cradle to Career milestones by 2030, with an interim target of 3,398 by 2024.

These champions can include nonprofit organizations, coalitions, local governments, neighborhood groups, businesses, and others that directly impact Cradle to Career outcomes. We are positioned to support up to 2,200 youth through 4 of the 5 confirmed Target Champions. We anticipate their impact alone to be approximately 42,000 by 2030.

Currently there are five different organizations acting as Regional Target Champions, you can learn more about them here.
