Current Focus Areas


Fostering student dialogue!
Schools across the country are trying out VitalVoices, a dialogue and self-awareness curriculum that we have found to foster belonging and perspective-taking.
At a time when learning the skills of productive dialogue could not be more important, we found VitalVoices to have a significant improvement in student perception that they could get along with those different from themselves. Join the VitalVoices family to see for yourself!
