Date: 2007

In "The National Writing Project: Commitment and Competence," her chapter in Reconnecting Education and Foundations: Turning Good Intentions into Educational Capital, Ann Lieberman traces how the interplay of program strength and funder acuity, woven together over time, have yielded a writing initiative that has clarified what worked and purged what didn't.
