Today, his values – to innovate, take risks, embrace diversity, adapt to changing circumstances, contribute to economic develop- ment/parity and to develop the power of the mind – continue to create and inform the culture of MMT, influencing its activities and the role that it plays in the region. The Trust’s mission is to work with and invest in organi- zations, communities, ideas and efforts that contribute to a flour- ishing and equitable Oregon. The Program Officer, Education will be a dynamic, engaged con- tributor to the overall efforts of the Trust, working to develop and implement new approaches to promote equity in the education sector.
