Welcome!
Welcome to our maiden voyage utilizing a blog to help spread information to communities in need of resources, specifically in Kansas.
We want this to be a positive space. A place to appreciate the great things, and address some not so great experiences and explore how to make them positive stories. Like sunflowers we're going to follow the sun!
Disclaimer: We plan to highlight a lot of what is working here in Kansas, because there are a TON of wonderfully awesome things about our state.
Whenever we speak of anything negative it will be of an experience that either turned into, or can turn into, something positive. Feel free to comment to join the conversation, or add your own positive experiences :)
I (Jaime) will be using the hometown I grew up in a lot as an example, because I sincerely believe that it could have benefited from a PRIDE (or similar) program to help address the many challenges and needs that it had.
So some ground rules:
- Please no negativity. If you can relate that is great! Please do not mention names or places.
- No name calling or cursing. Such posts will be deleted.
- Respect one another, even if someone thinks differently that you do about a subject.
- Be gracious. Everyone has had different experiences in life, do your best to honor others.
- Have fun and ask questions! We can all learn from one another!
