Audience Quotes:
“Thank you for the experience! The accounts were all so different and so moving. You told your stories—- often with humor and always with drama. I kept wanting to hear more”
-Nancy Staszak
“Tellin’ Tales programs grow awareness of complex issues by sharing first hand experiences. It's not commentary [....] it's lived experience and first hand experience shared is truly transformative as it provides the soil for positive growth for both the teller and receiver.”
