What is the
North Shore Collaborative?

The North Shore Collaborative is a partnership that came together in 1993 to build support for children and families along the North Shore of Lake Superior. Collaborative partners include Cook County ISD #166, Lake Superior ISD #381, the Cook and Lake County Boards of Commissioners, Human Development Center, Arrowhead Economic Opportunity Agency, Arrowhead Regional Corrections and the Grand Portage Tribal Reservation.

Our Mission Statement:

By working together to strengthen families, the North Shore Collaborative ensures that all of our children can grow up healthy and lead meaningful lives.

Our Vision Statement

Our vision is a healthy community where children are a high priority. Families, the community, schools, and public and private agencies work together as partners to address the mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual health of all of our children. Special attention is given to children at risk, and the stigma attached to getting help is eliminated. There is a high degree of community awareness and consensus about the need for collaboration to sustain healthy communities. The North Shore will be an attractive and supportive place to live, work, and raise families.

Our Goals

  1. To help kids succeed in school.
  2. To increase buy-in and involvement of under-represented partners.
  3. To increase community awareness of the value of collaboration.
