iLEAD Lancaster Learners Present at Resilience Cafe

The Resilience Cafe is a project at iLEAD Lancaster in which learners ask thought-provoking questions about themselves, identifying obstacles they face and paths to move forward. Learners connect their stories of resilience to those of community members and historical figures of their choice. Next, they create their ultimate “Slam Poetry” or Spoken Word” poems.

Through this powerful project, learners identify their strengths, find positive role models, actively shape their outlook on life, and use poetry to identify, acknowledge, and embrace their voices as they speak their truths.
