Why?

12/4/2022

0 Comments

 
At this time, every year, my internal batteries begin to run low (read - in the dead zone), and I am utterly exhausted by overwhelming frustration, worry, and external stimuli. And every year, when my neurodivergent, introverted brain says, "please let me hibernate for a couple of months," I am revived with thoughtful comments, kind gestures, and gentle reminders that my efforts are appreciated by many kids and their families.

And just like that, I am jolted back to my "why." 

  • all kids (neurodivergent, LGBTQIA+, etc.) are worthy of a safe space to be their authentic selves 
  • learning is natural - therefore, school is optional
  • young people will naturally follow their interests and learn all they need to know to achieve their ambitions
  • play is the key to all learning
  • every child is brilliant
  • I am on this earth to support and facilitate all of the above 
  • and I am inspired every day by these brilliant kiddos

As mentioned last week, DRC is on the cusp of growing to accommodate all of the families who seek our services. We do not refuse any of them - no matter their financial circumstances. This year alone we are on track to provide over 150k in fee reductions.
