STORY
CIRCLES
Story Circles create an opportunity for people in our community to connect with one another and be heard through story telling. Thanks to our partners PA Humanities and FCFP for supporting story circles throughout the valley, giving every story a chance to be shared.
LEWISBURG AREA HIGH SCHOOL
According to LAHS staff organizers, the purpose of the G.O.L.D. (Growth, Opportunities, Leadership, Development) event was to reach out to the students to help them feel seen, heard, and valued. 43 girls participated in the event. About the Story Circle, one participant said, "I left the Story Circle feeling more inspired, more thoughtful, and more connected."

STORY CIRCLES AT THE PUBLIC LIBRARY FOR UNION COUNTY
