I work as an elementary counselor between two schools in Anchorage. Both schools have a wide variety of students from different ethnic and economic backgrounds. Part of my job is to work with K-6 classrooms on social skills. Unfortunately, sometimes school is the only place where social skills are reinforced for our students. We have a large percentage of our student population receiving free breakfast at school and many receive free lunch. My students come from hard-working families that need support in any way possible. I am writing this grant to increase my resource "toolbox" to ensure that I am connecting with as many students as possible.
