Participation and Innovation in America
summary
Office of Social Innovation and Civic Participation pushes three levers: new financing (Social Innovation Fund at Education and CNCS) to provide scale capital for proven programs, interagency partnerships that outsource tech work (All for Good links on Serve.gov) and civic service plus data aggregation. Pilot: Text4Baby sends three free SMS per week, reaches 55,000+ women and uses carrier and agency MOUs; Family Independence Initiative boosts family welfare ~20% in one year. Legal and outreach barriers slow replication.
