Formed in 2012, Every Hand Joined is a community-wide partnership of businesses, nonprofits, city and county government, schools, foundations, and parents working to ensure young people reach their full potential, from cradle to career. These different entities believe that joining together, working collectively, they could have a greater impact upon Red Wing youth and the community’s future than working separately. By using shared accountability and common information to focus on improving school, family, and community systems, these partners collectively remove the barriers to a child’s success both in and out of school.
