REPRESENTATION MATTERS

Each Rising Voices Library provides students with high-interest, culturally relevant texts that give context to today’s world while celebrating the stories of the historically underrepresented. These books, paired with innovative teaching materials aligned to the CASEL Framework, promote a classroom community that broadens the perspectives of students from all backgrounds and enables deep discussions about inclusivity, respect, and empathy for others. Rising Voices encourages identity development through robust literacy instruction and empowers the next generation of critical thinkers and learners.
