In a time when educators are navigating constant shifts, including diminishing attention spans, new AI technology, and shrinking budgets, One Circle Foundation returned from the United School Leadership Conference in Seattle this week with a very clear message: United in community, we are stronger together.

Message from Our E.D. July was a full month at One Circle Foundation. We attended the American School Counselors Association conference, launched updated and new digital curricula, celebrated one of our staff members getting married, welcomed two new members to our Board of Directors, and connected with countless organizations and facilitators to provide support, training, and resources from all over the US and a few folks from Zimbabwe, Sierra Leone, and Canada. Supporting facilitators, communities, and youth is what we live for at One Circle Foundation. We’re proliferators of Circle guardians worldwide, and we are here to support you in this work. Here’s to a great first half of 2024. Onward and upward.   – Moorea Dickason

All Together Rising is an innovative collection of supplemental Circle sessions, compatible with any One Circle model (Girls Circle, Unity Circle, or The Council for Boys and Young Men), which has been meticulously developed to address the complexities of eight different adverse childhood experiences: community violence, food insecurity, homelessness & housing insecurity

In the hustle of our modern lives, where the digital world often overshadows the real one, it's easy to overlook the fundamental elements that truly enrich our existence: connection and gratitude.
