Research shows that Americans and their elected officials are most likely to push for policy change when they are persuaded that the changes are both morally right and in their proponents self interest. The Schumann Funds grant, supplemented with national funding from the Pew Charitable Trusts and others, supported Fight Crimes efforts to mobilize law enforcement officers and business leaders, both of which have unique credibility when making the case for increasing investments in young children.
