About The Event

Join us for an evening of insight and discussion about how collaborative
investments and a community-wide approach to education are slowly
changing the narrative of Northeast Ohio from a story of decline, to a
story of hope and optimism. Join a distinguished list of CEOs who are
partners in the Broadway P-16 Educational Program with a keynote address
by John Bridgeland, CEO of Civic Enterprises, whose work on the high
school dropout crisis helped bring national attention to the issue from
national media like TIME magazine’s “Dropout Nation,” and Oprah
Winfrey’s shows on the topic. The forum will share best practices on how
to develop the community partnerships needed to produce real results,
such as the Corporation for Public Broadcasting’s American Graduate:
Let’s Make It Happen national initiative.

About Cleveland State University’s Levin College of Urban Affairs

Known as the place “where the community gathers to discuss challenges,
create opportunities, and celebrate accomplishments,” the Levin College
Forum Program is a catalyst for thoughtful public debate, innovative
thinking, new ideas, and timely action addressing critical issues that
impact Northeast Ohio. Since its inception in 1998, the Forum has
tackled a broad range of civic issues including the lakefront plan,
economic growth and development, affordable housing, immigration,
education, the convention center, poverty, race and sustainable
development. The work of the forum is based on the premise that an
informed and engaged citizenry is a valuable asset for the region’s
future growth and prosperity. The public deliberation that takes place
at the Forums is intended to educate, inspire and engage. In 2005, the
Forum was recognized by Northern Ohio Live as “a springboard for
economic and social progress throughout the region” and in 2003 received
the national CivicMind award for its Millennium Program, which worked
with area high school students to introduce them to careers in public
service.
