What an privilege it has been to work alongside such an amazing group of people/organizations.
During times of uncertainty, community is what anchors us. I spent today celebrating with and learning from incredible leaders, bridge-builders, and advocates from a cohort of 11 grassroots organizations who are making change happen for families across NC. Their stories highlighted the value of togetherness, the power in centering family voice, and hope for the future (including an unexpected and moving performance of “You’ll Never Walk Alone”).
