Data

We pride ourselves on our momentum and this years numbers continue to reflect growth and lots of engagement. We're working out how best to support our online audiences as we also return to more in-person events, and working out how to balance and make the most of these two spheres. We have more affiliates than ever and maintain our connections with CAHSS Schools and our broader community. Our mailing list has also grown, with over 200 new subscribers this year. As our community becomes more established, we're seeing more return visitors to our website and growing engagement on social media. Our work and community continues to develop as we move forward, and we're excited for what the future holds.
