The J.M. Kaplan Fund is generously providing support for these awards in order to focus attention on successful integration initiatives, and to inspire and provide program models to others around the United States who might also undertake such efforts.
We would greatly appreciate your assistance in spreading the word about this exciting program and in encouraging outstanding integration initiatives to apply for recognition.
We look forward to increasing the visibility of some of the extraordinarily successful integration work that is underway in communities across our country and thank you in advance for helping us to identify and reach these important initiatives.
