Introducing LitChats!

Today, we are thrilled to share our first edition of LitChats, a special conversation with LitWorld’s Programs Team about how to create brave spaces for children.

In this conversation, we are discussing all of the lessons we’ve learned as purveyors of LitWorld’s work about how to create safe and brave learning environments that promote social and emotional learning.

Whether at home, school, or in the community, brave spaces are needed everywhere.

Tune in today!

With appreciation,

The LitWorld team

At LitWorld, We Believe:

Dear LitWorld Friend,

As we adjust our sails amidst the waves of change happening across the United States and throughout the world, one thing is for certain: we remain steadfast in our commitment to providing brave spaces for our global community of children and families through the safe refuge of storytelling.

During this moment of inflection, we reaffirm our values and re-commit to our mission of spreading the transformative power of story.

At LitWorld, we believe:

• Stories are the heartbeat of our humanity. By telling our stories, we color the world with the diversity of our thoughts, experiences, and visions. We believe stories are our most powerful assets, allowing us to declare that each of us are here, and we belong.

• Children are the center of our work. Our work is anchored in our steadfast commitment to provide safe and brave spaces for children through the love of storytelling. By doing so, we nurture their ability to find and own their voice, so that they can discover their inner power, and grow as leaders and changemakers.

• Literacy is a tool for social and emotional learning. By nurturing a love of reading, writing, speaking, listening & creating, we are dedicated to spreading the transformative power of storytelling. Through stories, we encourage our community to heal, grow, and reflect, nourishing both their hearts and minds.

• We lead with joy. We meet challenges with optimism, dedicated to spreading happiness to others as we serve our global community.

• Our work is Universal. Everyone deserves the space and place to share their stories, to discover who they are, and to explore their inner and outer worlds.
