Top of Page 21st Century Education Project seeking library participants The Choices for the 21st Century Education Project is seeking applications from libraries for public program mini-grants. The grants will provide support to libraries wishing to host a public policy discussion series.
Early application is encouraged.
These grant funds are made available by the National Endowment for the Humanities to help bring the Choices public policy discussion series to communities that cannot participate as part of a statewide program. Your participants will complete the Choices Citizen's Ballot and will have their concerns counted among the 2,500-3,000 Americans expected to participate in 2000. A report of the Citizen Ballot will be mailed to all participating libraries in January 2001. Choices national office staff will provide organizational support. The Choices Education Project is a program of Brown University's Watson Institute for International Studies.
