To support the expansion of "Our Stories, Our Future," a statewide project, by awarding grants, supporting speakers and book groups, all focused on stories from America's past that have importance for today and the future in Pennsylvania.

The PHC will continue to broaden the reach of Our Stories, Our Future with the We the People initiative. In 2008, our statewide project will reflect on stories from America's past that have urgent importance for our lives today and are critical to our future. Funds will be concentrated in grants and complemented by speakers and books groups. Promotional and media activities will brand and expand the reach of our face-to-face programs. The project will serve at least 100,000.
