Measurable Outcome(s)

After analyzing and debating stakeholder data and information, MHSL now has an agreed-upon interpretive theme for its Center with three subthemes that will allow development and organization of individual stories and historical clusters (e.g., civil rights, access to justice). The location for the Center has been identified, and the Committee is now focus on funding and building out the physical museum and producing programming related to these interpretive themes.
