Helping people hear each other... One story at a time
Welcome to a new platform for cultural change created by the ETSU Office of Equity and Inclusion. We are on an exciting journey that we hope will establish productive dialogue on the many challenges facing us as we strive for Social Justice.
We hope to create something useful with Community Voices. We aim to make this publication a place to establish compassion and understanding by providing readers with hundreds of individual’s stories from varying backgrounds and different points of view. Hence the tag line, “Helping People Hear Each Other One Story at a Time.”
