Achieve Escambia
Improving outcomes for Escambia County learners from cradle to career.

Achieve Escambia is a non-profit organization that brings people and resources together, creating an environment where every learner achieves their fullest potential from cradle to career.
We convene local non-profit and individual partners, gather relevant data, advocate for change, and help our partners work more efficiently by aligning goals through our Collective Action Networks.
Collective Action Networks
Our Collective Action Networks tackle key educational milestones and foster collective progress in the community. Explore the Kindergarten Readiness Collective Action Network (KCAN) and the Local College Access Network (LCAN) to learn more.
KCAN
Ready for school means ready for life! The Kindergarten Readiness Collective Action Network (KCAN) focuses on strategies guided by research to better prepare more children for school.
LCAN
Communities throughout the Sunshine State are collaborating across sectors to form Local College Access Networks (LCANs) to equip Floridians with the skills needed for tomorrow’s jobs.
Data
Achieve Escambia leverages data to drive positive change in our community by measuring what matters and identifying effective practices.
The Achieve Dashboard
The Achieve Dashboard is a collaborative effort of Achieve Escambia, Achieve Healthy EscaRosa, and the Haas Center at the University of West Florida. The dashboard is a free, easy-to-use tool that allows users to understand how key factors result in quality of life for individuals and the community.
