Transition to Success
is proud to announce our new
partnership with Ascend at the Aspen Institute!

Transition to Success (TTS) is proud to announce our new partnership with Ascend at the Aspen Institute. Ascend is a catalyst for using and amplifying two-generation (2Gen) approaches that build family well-being by intentionally and simultaneously working with children and the adults in their lives. Like TTS, 2Gen approaches integrate services and supports to move whole families forward.

Transition to Success Founder, Marcella Wilson PhD welcomes this new relationship and is looking forward to contributing to the Ascend Network. She stated, “The opportunity to become a part of Ascend Network brings us even closer to a national understanding that poverty is a treatable condition.” The TTS evidence-based standards of care and analytics unify a 2Gen approach across health, human services, government, education and faith-based organizations, improving health, educational and economic outcomes for families, children and adults.

“The Ascend Network is leading a nationwide movement to advance two-generation (2Gen) approaches so that entire families can pursue their goals and thrive,” said Ascend’s 2Gen Practice Director, Sarah Haight. “Transition to Success and the impact they’re making by dismantling the condition of poverty is a prime example of how 2Gen can holistically seed and sustain conditions for all families to flourish. We’re grateful for their partnership and are looking forward to seeing how TTS will be able to collaborate with and learn alongside the more than 450 Network partners across all 50 states, DC, and Puerto Rico.”
