Storytelling to Engage Parents and Community
Authentic, relatable stories help schools connect with families, build trust, and show the real impact of their work.
Equipping and supporting educators through training and services.
Teachers are the foundation of our communities. They are supporting the next generation to explore and lead in a new world. At Resource, we believe we cannot do enough to support them.
Resource focuses on providing relevant professional development each summer for teachers as well as other needed training to enable more people to enter this life-changing field. Resource has been a leader in equipping substitute teachers, paraprofessionals and those looking to earn their licensure or serve as principals.
