Different voices. Shared purpose. A stronger Brown County. 🧡

Our Community Council came together this week to share perspectives, challenge ideas and have meaningful conversations about how we can better represent and support our community.

This team is building something together that goes beyond the meeting room.

Because a stronger community starts with the people who make it one. 🫶

You can have a voice in strengthening early literacy in Brown County. There's a place for you at the table! 💚

At Together for Literacy on November 18, our afternoon breakout sessions are your chance to learn what's happening, share your perspective and help shape what's next.

You Can Choose 1 of 3 sessions:

📚 Built Literacy Environments: Explore & brainstorm how literacy is showing up in parks, laundromats and everyday spaces.

🌱 Kindergarten Readiness: Discover how community members are working to give our youngest learners a strong start! See what they've accomplished and bring your ideas to help shape kindergarten readiness across Brown County.

📊 Digging Into Data: Explore local literacy data and be among the first to test a new AI Data Chatbot developed by our Data Manager.

Only interested in the afternoon sessions? That's okay! Register for the portion of the day that interests you most, or join us for the full event.

Sometimes early literacy looks like this. 💚

Young people pointing out letters.
Families talking, playing and learning together.
Everyday spaces becoming places for connection.

That’s the idea behind ABC Conmigo | ABC With Me, our bilingual alphabet adventure bringing literacy into places families already spend time.

Want to hear how the pilot went and what we learned along the way?

Join us November 18 for Together for Literacy to explore this work and imagine even more ways to bring literacy into everyday places across Brown County. 📚

So grateful to the Women’s Fund of Greater Green Bay for supporting this next step for Achieve Brown County!

We’re excited to bring more parent voices into the conversations and decisions that impact children and families.🧡

🌟 GRANTEE SPOTLIGHT: Achieve Brown County

The Women’s Fund of Greater Green Bay is proud to support Achieve Brown County as they design and pilot a new Parent Leadership Program.

Inspired by successful models in Milwaukee and the Fox Valley, the program will equip parents, mostly mothers, with leadership skills, relationships, and opportunities to participate in shaping decisions affecting children and families.

By helping women strengthen their voices and take an active role in the decisions that impact their families and communities, programs like this help advance the Women’s Fund’s mission to positively impact women and girls throughout Greater Green Bay.

Good data can help move good work forward. 📊

When Martha and the Bay Area Council on Gender Diversity came to Achieve Brown County with a need for support, our team helped provide credible, well-sourced data they could put to use.

Since then, the report has:
- Supported grant applications
- Reached more than 1,200 newsletter recipients
- Shared with community groups and organizations across Wisconsin

It’s one example of how Achieve Brown County uses data to help our community better understand needs and move ideas into action.🧡

A new chapter for the community! 📚💚

The Achieve Brown County team took a little field trip to celebrate the grand opening of the new Denmark Community Center & Library!

It was pretty special to see the space already full of families, young people exploring the library and so much excitement around something new for the community.

Congratulations to the Denmark community, Brown County Library and everyone who helped bring this space to life. We’re excited to see all the memories & connections that will happen here. 🧡

Please join us in welcoming David Johns to the Achieve Brown County Board of Directors! 🧡

David has been connected to Achieve Brown County since arriving in Green Bay more than three years ago!

His career has focused on creating better opportunities for young people and closing gaps tied to circumstances outside of their control.
David brings experience in education, literacy, data, leadership and systems change, along with a belief at the heart of Achieve Brown County’s work: it takes all of us working together to create better outcomes for young people.

As David shared, Achieve Brown County “puts out a call to the whole community to contribute to the closing of those gaps.”

We’re grateful David answered that call and excited to officially welcome him to the Board of Directors!

Welcome, David!
