(1) Announcement of some staffing changes & HELP NEEDED
a. Joyful Freeman is stepping down as the listserve volunteer who sends jobs digests. Thank you SO MUCH, Joyful. Not just for your volunteering with the list, but for all your years of this work, for helping scores
of youths find their voices, supporting the work of so many other partners in this work. You are one of my heroes.
b. Welcome back, Ethan Blustein. Ethan, who used to serve as an Americorps Member with Safe Schools Coalition and, more recently, has been a grad student, has graciously agreed to take over the jobs list from Joyful. Welcome
"home," Ethan.
c. HELP NEEDED: We still need one more volunteer listserv staffer to take over sending monthly lesson planning guides. The job will take 4-8 hours/month.
