Our PLTI/PEP/PSEE Alumni celebrated yesterday with a New Year’s Potluck Party! It was wonderful to see so many faces all the way from the Class of 1997 to the Class of 2025. We are still accepting applications for the Class of 2026 so spread the word.

Teamwork makes the dream work! The SPEF crew was out in full force yesterday at the Power of Connection conference. We’re feeling inspired, energized, and ready to take our mentoring programs to the next level! Huge thanks to the ctGppA for hosting such an impactful event.

Today at @rippowammiddleschool we focused on connecting gratitude with a positive mindset. Mentors and mentees reflected on what they’re thankful for while creating gratitude trees. #spefct #Stamfordct #mentor
