In the Arena with NOW lifts up the voices of community leaders who are “in the arena” — in classrooms, playgrounds, Congressional halls, hospitals, and neighborhood streets — working to make sure that all children and families can live healthy, thriving lives. Each episode will delve into the experiences of local coalitions, residents, and experts who are working to create equitable systems of care and education. We’ll learn about what they are doing and why, challenges and successes faced, and advice for others seeking to build, grow, and sustain momentum for the long haul.
