Enhancing the Local Partnership for PCI Foundation Programs

I am often asked how long does it take to get a PCI Foundation program started. We have developed programs with 14 schools ... and each of them are different. From the time frame to get them started to the content of their programs no two are alike. However, experience has taught me some of the steps that a program can expect to take in order to get a PCI Foundation grant started.

The first thing needed is always the local partnership between a school and either a PCI region or a PCI Member who will work with the school to ensure that there is always good collaboration between both partners, and help the school navigate PCI meetings and programs. Typically, the time frame looks something like this prior to students being the the precast classroom.
