I kind of accidently stumbled across a simple post I first wrote shortly after the inception of this blog. It was simply a quote from a Starbucks cup (you know the ones), but I thought it was worth repeating here nearly 2 years later.
“It’s relationships, not programs that change children. A great program simply creates the environment for healthy relationships to form between adults and children. Young people thrive when adults care about them on a one-to-one level, and when they also have a sense of belonging to a caring community.”
-Bill Milliken, founder of Communities in Schools

Awesome quote.
