Southwest Initiative Foundation has secured access to Josh Shipp’s Social-Emotional Learning Curriculum through The Power of One virtual forum. We believe that all southwest Minnesota kids are our kids, and that now, more than ever, our kids need us to provide connection, care, and encouragement. Let’s Grow Our Own and ensure that all our kids can reach their full potential!
