For many of us here in the United States, the span from Christmas Day to New Year’s Day is a time spent enjoying the company of family and friends. As a year-end tribute to our first year of blogging, we’d like to highlight the following blog posts that feature the family members of those of us here at the Hartford Foundation. Thinking on how our work is related to—and could possibly impact—the lives of our loved ones gives us renewed enthusiasm for our work in the New Year.
