Partners and Current Initiatives

The Discovery Initiative

The Memorial Fund is committed to supporting the Discovery Initiative through 2007 with grants, technical assistance and other supports. Two core values also support the work: parent engagement and collaboration. Experience shows that communities that work collaboratively and meaningfully engage parents are more successful over the long term.
