or 80 years, the Vinson Institute has been serving state and local governments. State funding has made our work possible. In recent years, however, that funding has declined, and we must now look to other sources to help ensure the breadth and quality of our programs. You can help. You have relied on the Institute in the past. Your generosity now will help us design a future that will meet your needs even better.

Here are some of the programs your gift will help support:

Local government training and education Local government research and assistance Professional development for elected officials Biennial and other legislative training Peach State Poll Local government Geographic Information Systems services Environmental policy analysis

Economic analysis Human resources management International programs Public policy research Survey research Civic education Family and Children Policy

lease show your commitment to the work of the Vinson Institute by giving to the university's Arch Foundation now. You can indicate your gift by completing and returning a Commitment Form provided for that purpose.

Thank you for continuing to support the Vinson Institute.
