No definite answer can be given on that. Funding services linked to school is one complicated issue everyone has been avoiding to talk about (Chavkin, 1997). There are no definite methods. Multiple streams of both new and existing funding have been used by different experiments. A number of initiatives are funded by states such as New Jersey, California, Missouri, Florida, and Kentucky, initiatives funded by organizations and foundations such as Annie E.
