More often than not, strategy follows relationships.
CPAL actively engages directly with families, community organizations, and local government. Investing in relationships across all of these constituencies gives us our best chance to move beyond zero-sum thinking and towards shared problem solving.
Our Approach
Fostering collaboration through a 'bias for action'.
Our approach to collaboration and scale has been adapted from an intensive lookback at 15 of history’s most celebrated social impact successes.
Leveraging the scale of government
We bring together the CEOs of Dallas' largest public agencies on a regular basis.
Together, these leaders represent more than $10 billion in operating budget. CPAL keeps data and insights at the center of strategy conversations.
100+ Partner Organizations
None of our most impactful work happens alone. That's why we prioritize building a broad set of relationships within a growing network of local and national partner organizations. In addition, we cultivate on-the-ground insights by actively participating in more than 1,500 conversations with residents and front-line workers every year.
