To really change the world, we have to help people change the way they see things.

— Suzy Kassem

Engagement

Creating opportunities for engagement - with books and between people - is the heart of what we do. Whether in person, on paper, or online, all of our engagement initiatives start with books and share three aims: to foster confidence in individual readers, to build understanding within our communities, and to inspire every reader to become an active agent in making the changes - big and small - they want to see in our world.
