They provide an array of wrap-around services to give families the tools and resources they need to create stability in their lives and enable parents and caregivers to step comfortably into their role as their child’s first teacher. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In September, I attended an Art of Hosting gathering called the Art of Participatory Leadership and Social Change in New York City. The hosting team for this event called the gathering around the question, “What is the new conversation in social justice and equity that you are longing to have?” A few weeks later, I met with queer community organizer and social justice activist Kelly McGowan, to learn more about why she chose to help make this event happen and why she thinks participatory leadership is important now at this time in history.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Through lessons learned in the classroom, conversations with professors and classmates, and involvement with entrepreneurs in my own community and abroad, I am leaving school with an entirely different view of business than when I entered.
