They will bring strategies and practices back to their programs, schools, and our community.

We are grateful for this opportunity as we continue building a vibrant, evidence-based, adult-first, relationship-centered social-emotional learning and mental health community of practice in St. Joseph County's.

A special thank you to the Asante Foundation and the Valinhos Foundation for their vision, partnership, support and generous funding that make these transformational learning opportunities possible. ❤
