Following months of isolation, fear, and a loss of volition, the country was devasted with a new trauma. The chronic disruption of a global health crisis disproportionately impacting our minority communities, fueled the acute trauma of a publicly televised murder. This most recent act of social inequality and human degradation led to a series of protests, rioting and civil unrest. The further polarization requires action by our schools to prevent continued ethnocentrism and racism. Under the umbrella of psychosocial emotional and moral learning, we can support your community as it engages in this challenging work.

REVENUE GENERATING
- Districts earn by turning solicitors into sponsors
- Local, regional, and/or national vendors place branding on portal thereby earning money for the district
- Create an ecosystem between school, family, and business communities
- Save time by redirecting vendors
Currently, one national sponsor supports districts with financial help and retirement planning for faculty. Their interest in expanding into New Jersey and desire to give back to the educational community, make them an ideal sponsor. Neither districts nor educators will incur any costs from the sponsor, allowing fully funded access to these opportunities to provide education.
