Dr. Cynthia Warren: A Voice for Women

“Women must speak up. Even though sometimes we are in the minority, we know that our voices often lead others through turbulent times. A great leader knows her strengths and uses them to make positive change. I am a voice for women.”

Gina Battista: Resilient Leader

“We have to really start looking at education and we have to go deeper. We have to focus on teacher practices to make learning more student-based and get them beyond the surface of learning.”

Monique Pruitt: Feeding Children During the Crisis

“My superheroes are my BASAS family, my union family, within Food and Nutrition Services. Real heroes to me are the staff who come to work every day, who show up in the blink of an eye."
