The Mississippi Thrive! project was a partnership of the University of Mississippi Medical Center and the Social Science Research Center. Mississippi Thrive! was a 5-year, $17.5M project funded by the Health Resources & Services Administration that was designed to improve the Mississippi early childhood developmental health system.
Certain portions of this project’s work continue through other funding sources’ support. Information and resources from the project are being housed on the Mississippi Thrive! webpage, which continues under the funding of the MS Department of Human Services’ Division of Early Child Care and Development as part of their consumer education efforts.
