We focus on strengthening the networks of providers that deliver services to address these concerns and through staff of UWGLV who lead efforts across all three-issue areas, we address issues at the programmatic and systemic levels seeking to identify and deal with the root causes. We utilize the collective impact framework as a method for this problem solving of complex social issues and we embrace and promote practices as an asset towards creating positive change.
