Now is a time for paience, hope, and planning . We will continue to watch for guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and our state health department. We will look to the resources that are being shared with us every day and consult with our peers and advisors, before making deisions that could have lasting impactson our program opperations.  As educatioal professionals, we are experts at building optimism and community in the face of fear and uncertainty. Our summer experiences teach resilience, determiation, kindness, and teamwork.
