For this series, we hope to share information from community based organizations that provide services within and beyond Boston Public Schools as a way to strengthen collaboration and share resources with each other. In the future, we hope to offer roundtable discussions with community based providers and school professionals sharing experiences that can guide supporting students, families, and school staff. Prioritizing the voice of those working in the community and in schools is central to this series.
