California Tomorrow is conducting a national project that seeks to document
and highlight the efforts of schools and communities that support young
people to develop and maintain their heritage languages.  One important
piece of our work is compiling examples of policies at the state, national,
city, or school district levels that support the reclamation, development,
and/or maintenance of heritage languages, as well as policies that call for
the development of bilingualism of all children.

If you know of any such policies, we would greatly appreciate your help.  We
need the exact wording of the policy, and detailed information about the
source.  Thank you for your assistance and your ideas.
