WE HAVE DISCOVERED THE COMMON DNA AMONG THE ORGANIZATIONS THAT EFFECTIVELY SERVE (CONTINUED) PEOPLE WITH MULTIPLE CHALLENGES LASTING CHANGE OCCURS WHEN PEOPLE ARE SUPPORTED IN THE FULL FRAME OF THEIR LIVES. MANY MORE ORGANIZATIONS WANT TO OPERATE WITH A FULL FRAME APPROACH, BUT ARE STYMIED BY BARRIERS IN THE SOCIAL SERVICE SYSTEM.

REMOVING THOSE BARRIERS IS THE SINGLE MOST EFFECTIVE PATH TO LASTING CHANGE, WHILE SAVING MILLIONS OF LIVES AND BILLIONS OF DOLLARS. IN PARTNERSHIP WITH PRACTICAL VISIONARIES IN GOVERNMENT, PHILANTHROPY, NONPROFITS AND COMMUNITIES, THE FULL FRAME INITIATIVE IS REMOVING SYSTEMIC BARRIERS, UNLEASHING THE POTENTIAL FOR MORE PEOPLE AND MORE COMMUNITIES TO THRIVE. 0 0 320408 16406 FFI PROVIDED SERVICES (E.G., CONSULTING, TRAINING, EDUCATIONAL MATERIALS) TO HUMAN SERVICE AGENCIES AND TO FUNDERS, BOTH PUBLIC AND PRIVATE, TO SUPPORT THEM IN DEVELOPING AND ADOPTING TOOLS BASED ON THE FULL FRAME APPROACH/FIVE DOMAINS OF WELLBEING IN ORDER TO IMPROVE THE EFFICACY OF THEIR WORK AND INVESTMENTS.
