Hello all! A friend is working with a group that helps PoC queer youth. Soon, they will be making announcements and trying to get the signal out about their project.

Today, Sesame Workshop launches its newest initiative, Little Children, Big Challenges: Incarceration. This bilingual (English/Spanish) multimedia outreach initiative provides much-needed resources to support and comfort young children (ages 3–8) throughout their parents’ incarceration.

Sesame Street, being awesome since forever.
