The Educational Alliance on New York City's Lower East Side is one of New York's oldest and most distinguished settlement houses.

It has played a critical role in the acculturation of Jews and non-Jews, and mounted an extra-ordinary array of high-quality programs and services to a diverse population. Yet, increasingly it found itself unable to move forward in the face of deeply rooted dilemmas related to its future directions - a neighborhood vs. citywide focus; an emphasis on serving the poor vs. serving the entire community; Jewish vs. non-sectarian character.

A highly integrated partnership of UAI consultants, board and professional leadership analyzed facts and clarified policy choices to chart a plan that the Executive Director has described as "transformative."
