our collective

We are fortunate to have the support of a collective of trusted partners, each of whom brings unique talents and expertise to the work. They are educators, academics, advocates, evaluators, researchers, storytellers, coaches, creatives, youth workers, and more. The connective tissue between us all is our passion for change, our belief that it is possible, and our commitment to carrying forward the legacy of truth-seeking and telling that our various ancestors have entrusted us with.
