Hayward Promise Neighborhood

Inspired by the success of the Harlem Children’s Zone, Promise Neighborhoods are federally funded place-based efforts to wrap children in integrated, coordinated, high-quality academic, social, and health programs and supports from the cradle to college to career. 
 
In 2011, Hayward became one of the first five cities in the nation to receive the five-year $25 million Implementation grant from the U.S. Department of Education to support Hayward’s Jackson Triangle community and students that attend six target schools within the Hayward Unified School District. Led by California State University, East Bay; Hayward Promise Neighborhood partners with a wide variety of local agencies to improve the educational, social and health outcomes of the Hayward Promise Neighborhood community.
