New Haven Promise Goes Beyond Just Scholarships

http://cptv.vo.llnwd.net/o2/ypmwebcontent/2011/2011_08_18_File%20LN%20110818%20nh%20promise%202%20way.wav.mp3

You've probably heard of New Haven Promise by now.  It's a scholarship program funded by Yale University and community partners which awards New Haven public school students who show academic potential.

But the Promise program isn't just about paying tuition for some.

WNPR's Lucy Nalpathanchil spoke with New Haven Promise Executive Director Emily Brynes about the program's community outreach.

 

Lucy leads Connecticut Public's strategies to deeply connect and build collaborations with community-focused organizations across the state.
