@noiie_bc I am from big skies, towering mountains and silent streams. I am from rambunctious dinner tables, big hugs and cross country rambles.

Diversity is a fact.
Equity is a choice.
Inclusion is an action.
Belonging is an outcome.

[Jason Kennedy | Stop Teaching & Design Learning! @letsquitteachin]

Tier 1 is the key.
Fix it first.
