About Us
Press
When your work is about partnership and collaboration, members of the press do not always accurately attribute accomplishments to all partners in accordance with their contributions. While we do not assume responsibility for the accuracy of the content of the articles below, we are grateful for the attention and coverage. We will continue through various means to get the word out and work with local reporters to keep everyone informed about the many excellent people and organizations that make our collaborative work possible.
