In 2017, the Pascale Sykes Foundation, with a 2022 sunset on the horizon, made two final investments in its flagship initiative, the Whole Family Approach (WFA). The Foundation has funded nonprofit collaborations serving families in rural southern New Jersey since 2012. Interested in learning if the approach translated to an urban setting, in 2016, the Foundation invited former grantees who might be interested in collaborating to a series of pre-proposal sessions to learn more about the Whole Family Approach.
