We all see the urgent unmet needs out there, and many of us come up with great ideas to address them. In this, the second in a series of five programs examining the role of foundations as key partners with communities, we'll hear how local civic organizations are inventing ways to deal with the challenges of giving birth, growing up safe and secure, and, at the end of life, dying with dignity.
This program was funded by The Packard Foundation.
