E3 Alliance

The E3 Alliance is a regional, data-driven education collaborative based in Austin, Texas. The Alliance works to build the strongest educational pipeline in the U.S. to drive regional economic prosperity. A collective impact effort, E3 teams up with a broad range of community representatives to work together on achieving lasting systemic change. Since 2006, the Alliance has engaged 15 school districts, eight institutions of higher education, numerous businesses and nonprofits, and policy leaders across Central Texas to address complex community issues in education.

By 2023, E3 Alliance and its partners have established measurable objectives to improve student outcomes and decrease inequity across the cradle-to-career pipeline.
