Ashia, Luz, and I finished facilitating the ALC 4 virtual retreat a couple weeks ago. I already miss our amazing, intelligent, kind, goofy cohort.

If you're excited about participating in a future ALC, keep an eye out on our social media and newsletters!

It is our pleasure to introduce just a glimpse of the diverse narratives that exist within the 3rd annual DDCSP Alumni Leadership Cohort.
