Abstract
The Institute for Advanced Learning and Research was honored with a regional Innovator Award as part of the Rising Together: Summit on the Rural South conference held in Point Clear, Ala., in June. Alabama Gov. Bob Riley presented Tim Franklin, executive director, and Nancy Franklin, senior director of Technology and Programs, with an Innovator award at the opening session of the conference. Each year Southern Growth Policies Board, a regional public policy think tank, recognizes innovative programs in the South that are improving the quality of life in the region with the Innovator Awards.
