In our effort to make a difference in education and the community at large, we lead both selves and teams in support of courage, connection, and inclusion.
We support each other and our partners to do and say the important or hard thing, even when it would be easier not to. We do not choose the comfortable way if it means stepping away from our commitment to ensuring that educators, students, and families have a chance to connect, heal, and thrive.
We seek to engage others with an open heart, an attentive ear, and without armor so that all can feel seen, heard, and valued. True human connection leaves judgment at the door.
We strive to build trusting and welcoming school communities. We seek representation of diverse perspectives, thinking, lived experiences, and cultural upbringings. It is a critical foundation of building brave, safe spaces.
“We believe that the greatest casualty of trauma is the emotional, and sometimes physical, safety required to be vulnerable, and that, in addition to violence and neglect, poverty, racism, sexism, ageism, ableism, sizeism, homophobia, transphobia, Islamophobia, xenophobia, and other systemic forms of oppression and/or bias are trauma.”
