Social Innovation Fund

The Social Innovation Fund was authorized by the Edward M. Kennedy Serve America Act, and signed by President Obama in April 2009. In December 2009 we began our process by hosting several Social Innovation Town Hall meeting across the state. We are at the next step in of the very rigorous process of developing a proposal for submission to the Corporation for National and Community Service for the Social Innovation Fund (www.cns.gov). We have developed a three-stage approach to designing the grant proposal which will draw on the expertise of community leaders, businesses, and organizations throughout the state. The Design Team of diverse professionals will help develop a proposal that will best position the state of New Mexico to receive this highly sought-after funding. We have no preconceived ideas as to how to tailor the proposal for submission. Instead, we will be looking for input from you to provide insight and expertise on how best to design this proposal to create meaningful system reform in New Mexico.
