Teach For America partnered with Common Good Labs to conduct a social network analysis (SNA) of their alumni networks across 13 cities, exploring regional differences, key alumni, and network impact. The studies revealed that TFA alumni networks are more influenced by roles than geography and are crucial for creating change. The findings have significantly guided Teach For America's organizational learning and decision-making, providing insight on how local TFA staff can impact their alumni networks through strategic engagement and leadership.
