April 2024



Dear John,

Spring is here and we hope you find this month's resources as refreshing as the new season! April is National Poetry Month and we know that poetry can be a powerful tool to explore identity, bias and making a difference. Also included in this newsletter is registration for our Breaking Down Bias online course, an Echoes & Reflections webinar and two new Table Talk family discussion guides.


Lastly, please save the date of May 14 for our next “Changing the World One Word at a Time: Read Aloud and Conversation" (details below).
