....fixing one point (Predictor Point) on the educational

continuum makes little difference on a macro level

unless all parts of the continuum are improved.

Collective impact optimally designed will coordinate

improvements at every stage of a young person’s life,

from “cradle to career.”

Statistically relevant academic and non-academic milestones

where if no intervention is taken, the results include fewer

Latino students making it into college.

Most of New Futuro’s community-based, non-profit partners

focus on key Predictor Points.

Showcasing the opportunity: New Futuro and ISAC:

The primary Predictor Point that ISAC has identified is:

90% of those who complete the FAFSA go onto college. If we understand that

only 13% of Hispanics compared to 31% non-white Hispanics go to college,

the more Hispanics who complete the FAFSA, the better the chance we will

raise the total amount of Hispanics that go to college.
