Seeking lit review/research support -- any ideas or leads?

I am looking for someone to do a literature review or some research on best practices for communities to fully engage young people as partners in decision-making bodies: 1) how to advocate for this effectively, 2) what structures, practices & training are effective, 3) what the impact has been (qualitative and/or quantitative).  Any ideas?  Thanks!!

Have you spoken with Dwight Hall?

Yes, this sounds like a PERFECT project for one of their Community-Based Learning classes:  http://www.yale.edu/cbl/AboutUs.html

They are currently recruiting nonprofit/city partners for work this semester.

IRIS partnered with them last year on a research project about English-language learners in magnet schools, and were pleased with their report. 

Thanks so much Kelly!!  That's a great idea!

thank you Mark!  We did contact Johnny Scafidi -- waiting to hear back!
