N2  - "This report explores New Zealand’s ‘Bright Spots’:  – local places and community initiatives that are making a positive difference to children and families. Instead of asking about the issues and problems for ‘vulnerable children’ or ‘high-needs families’, we ask  ‘what’s working?’ What are ‘bright spots’ doing that  is different from the rest of the country? Why are they having an impact?
A total of twenty-one initiatives were explored through informal interviews and conversations. The initiatives ranged in size and scale, age, geography, entity type (e.g. unincorporated community groups/leaders, not-for-profit agencies, corporations). Twenty of the twenty-one initiatives were based in areas that Statistics New Zealand would classify as ‘high-deprivation areas’ on the NZDep Index. Stakeholders from philanthropic and government sectors were also interviewed." (From the Executive Summary). The report was commissioned by four organisations: Inspiring Communities Trust, Royal New Zealand Plunket Society, UNICEF New Zealand and Every Child Counts. Record #5097
