Core offering

The Oregon Health & Education Collaborative was a non-profit convening organization that connected healthcare, education, and human services partners to strengthen systems supporting Oregon's children and families. Its flagship offering was the Upstream Initiative, which funded and coordinated five design pilots across eight Oregon counties to co-create community-driven Child Success Models supporting families during pregnancy and a child's first 1,000 days. The Collaborative also produced the Oregon Child Success Blueprint, the Upstream Shared Measures framework, and a Global Grant Template, and advocated for the Child Success Act (SB 1167) before dissolving in January 2026.

Product overview

Oregon Health & Education Collaborative was a non-profit organization that operated as a platform connecting healthcare, education, and human services sectors to improve outcomes for Oregon's children. The core offering was the Upstream Initiative, a community-driven program supporting families during pregnancy and a child's first 1,000 days. This initiative was executed through five Design Pilots across eight Oregon counties, which produced locally-developed Child Success Models. These models informed the Oregon Child Success Blueprint—a statewide policy framework—and supported advocacy for the Child Success Act (SB 1167) legislation. The organization also provided downloadable resources including the Shared Measures Framework. The Collaborative dissolved in January 2026 after the board voted to wind down operations.

Direct peers

• Child Trends: Non-profit research organization producing evidence on child and family well-being and advising state policy. Comparable in producing shared-measures frameworks and cross-sector policy recommendations.
• Help Me Grow National Network: A national network that supports state and local affiliates in building coordinated early childhood systems linking families to services. Mirrors The Collaborative's service-coordination and family-navigation approach.
• Start Early: National non-profit that builds cross-sector early childhood systems and advocates for prenatal-to-age-5 policy. Most directly comparable to The Collaborative's Upstream Initiative model of convening health, education, and family partners.
• Prenatal-to-3 Policy Impact Center: Research and policy center focused on the prenatal-to-age-3 window, producing state policy roadmaps and evidence reviews. Closely aligned with The Collaborative's first-1,000-days framing and policy-strategy synthesis.
• National Center for Children in Poverty: Policy organization focused on young children in low-income families, producing research, policy analysis, and state-level early-childhood systems resources. Comparable policy and family-support focus.
• Think Babies: ZERO TO THREE-led campaign advancing public will and policy for infants, toddlers, and their families. Comparable messaging and upstream-investment policy framing to The Collaborative's advocacy work.

Broad incumbents

• ZERO TO THREE: Established national organization working across research, policy, and professional development for the prenatal-to-3 period. Operates as a broader portfolio of programs versus The Collaborative's single-state convening focus.

Others
