Dear Hillary:

Enclosed is some material about FCD: our last annual report; recent grants, a listing of grants approved in the fiscal year just ended; and the organi-zation's bylaws. Your response to our invitation to join the council was so heartening; your weití>ership will provide new strength not only to the council, but to the board and staff.

Mary Bundy, who chairs the nominating committee is also delighted to know that you have agreed, and she will be writing you later this spring. I look forward to working with you.

With best regards.

Dear Hillary:

You were missed last week at our annual council meeting» but I do appreciate your having taken the time to review the materials and give us your thoughts on the NGA project. As you indicated, new efforts to reach the thousands of line workers who will in the end be critical to whether the FSA improves services to families pose an enormous challenge to ail of us, one that will take patience, time, and persistence to meet. I was encouraged, however, by Lynne Fender's response to your observations. Lynne acknowledges that N6A by itself has been unable to penetrate much beyond the top levels of human service officials, but that its new consortium with APWÂ, NACo, and CCSSO is designed to facilitate communication with a much broader group of staff members.

The regional meetings provide a real opportunity to learn more about which staff are being reached. I look forward to talking with you as the technical assistance process unfolds.

With best regards,

Barbara B. Blum

Ms. Mary L. Bundy Foundation for Child Development 345 East 46 Street New York, N Y 10017-3562 Dear Ms. Bundy:

I greatly appreciated your letter of July 30, 1991, asking if I would be willing to have my name submitted for election to the class of 1994 of the Foundation's Council. As much as I would love to say yes, I cannot at this time take on any additional obligations. There are a number of pressing matters on my agenda (and also my husband's) that I have to give my priority to before I can accept any others. I hope, though, you will leave the door open for me and permit me to be reconsidered next year.

I admire the work that the Foundation does and, although I have not been able to attend all of the Council meetings that I would like to have, I learned a great deal and still remember vividly my conversations with the other participants.

Please give my regards to the other members of the Council and the Staff of the Foundation for the good work they continue to do.

Sincerely yours.

I Hillary Rodham Clinton

Dear Hillary,

Although your current activities preclude continued mem-bership as a member of FCD's council, our board and staff hope that, at a time not too distant, we can involve you again, perhaps more actively, in our work. Your leadership on the issues of concern to the foundation is simply excep-tional and we are grateful for all you do.

kh every good wish.

Barbara B. Blum
