Race, Gender, and identity

Throughout the year, please feel free to join us in our "Courageous Storytelling" volunteer trainings, where we examine the intersection of our identities and our writing.

Below, you'll find further resources centering on how our identities impact our lived experiences. These additional materials are by no means exhaustive, and are certainly a work in progress. Feel free to send along your suggestions to Education Director Catherine Calabro Cavin.
