“The Institute exceeded my expectations and fed my spirit in a way that will accelerate my impact. 
It offered a rare opportunity to connect to other educators and look at purpose and intention on a deeper level. 
The Institute pushed my limits on thinking about ‘participation’. 
It allowed me an opportunity to live through how to foster a community by how you structure activities.”

“This was the best Institute or conference that I have ever attended! I am newly inspired! 
I will start the school year with many ideas that I am excited to share and try. I also feel I can be clearer in promoting service-learning in my school. Thank you all for your thoughtfulness in planning out such a well rounded and stimulating program. It was clear that you were there to help us learn and understand.”
