In Broader, Bolder, Better, authors Elaine Weiss, of the Broader, Bolder Approach to Education campaign, and Paul Reville, former Massachusetts secretary of education, make a compelling case for a fundamental change in the way we view education. The authors argue for a large-scale expansion of community-school partnerships in order to provide holistic, integrated student supports (ISS) from cradle to career, including traditional wraparound services like health, mental health, nutrition, and family supports, as well as expanded access to opportunities such as early childhood education, afterschool activities, and summer enrichment programs.
The book builds on nearly a decade of research by the Broader, Bolder Approach to Education, a national initiative endorsed by more than sixty policy experts and leaders from across the country, and draws on the work of Harvard's Education Redesign Lab. It pulls from case studies of effective ISS efforts in twelve diverse communities to illustrate the variety of strategies that can be adopted locally.
A call to action that also provides examples of communities that are successfully leveling the playing field for poor children, this book offers a detailed vision for building-through field work, mobilization, and financing-comprehensive systems to prepare all children for success.

She was the national coordinator for the Broader, Bolder Approach to Education (BBA) from 2011 to 2017.

Major publications for BBA include case studies of diverse communities that employ comprehensive, whole-child approaches to education across the country.

With Don Long, she wrote a 2013 report, "Market-Oriented Education Reforms' Rhetoric Trumps Reality," and she wrote a 2013 Economic Policy Institute paper, "Mismatches in Race to the Top Limit Educational Improvement." In 2014, Elaine worked with multiple educators to write a series of commentaries for Bill Moyers & Company on the many links between poverty and education. She has also written dozens of blogs for the Huffington Post, the Washington Post Answer Sheet, Talk Poverty, the Nation, and other publications.
