Building Bridges of Belonging & Culture Café

Session Description
Join us for Building Bridges of Belonging, a welcoming space where all WESD staff can come together to connect, network, and build meaningful relationships!

We will have books, cards, and games that encourage interaction and collaboration. Whether you prefer quiet reflection or lively conversation, there's something for everyone.

This session will also be an opportunity to learn more about our 2024-2025 Culture Café Book Club, where we engage in culturally relevant topics and expand our cultural awareness. We're excited to introduce this year's book club selection, Between the Listening and the Telling: How Stories Can Save Us by Mark Yaconelli. Join us as we explore the power of storytelling and its impact on our lives and communities.

We look forward to seeing you there!
