The Hartford has awarded CCER a three-year operating grant to support our work in reforming public education in Connecticut. The Hartford has been a strong partner in the improvement of our community and its schools and continues to focus on educational excellence. As part of its long-term commitment to invest in the Asylum Hill and Greater Hartford Communities, The Hartford continues to partner with Hartford Public Schools and community organizations to identify achievement gaps and build sustainable programs to foster maximum educational impact.
We are so thankful to have The Hartford as a partner.
The Travelers Foundation supports initiatives that improve academic and career success for underrepresented youth, specifically targeted at public school children in grades five through 12, as well as those in transition to post-secondary education and in the post-secondary learning environment.
