Stories for the Heart

A storytelling residency designed to reconnect community and build social emotional skills for students, staff, and families.

We might not know exactly what the 2021-22 school year will look like, but we DO know our students, staff, and families are weary and need to heal.

The Stories For The Heart residency program uses the power of traditional storytelling to build resiliency and reconnection across school communities.

Some bonus benefits of growing social emotional skills and connections through storytelling?

  • Literacy skills!

  • Cultural awareness and appreciation through world folklore!
