How We Work
P/PV is a national leader in creating and strengthening programs that improve lives in low-income communities. We do this in three ways:
- Innovation: We work with leaders in the field to identify promising existing programs or develop ones.

- Action: We reproduce proven models in new locations, provide technical assistance where needed and inform policymakers and practitioners about what works.
Resources for: Practitioners, Policymakers, Funders, Media
