We are sending out our Fall newsletter this week. Some of you will receive a hard copy in your mailbox (old style!), and here is a link to the digital version for all of you.

The feature story is written by current North Star member Tove Schweitzer. Her story is powerful, honest, and represents North Star’s mission quite clearly. She movingly describes her transition from managing school to experiencing stress to leaving school with our support to constructing an interesting and meaningful weekly routine that she thoroughly enjoys. Congratulations to Tove, and I encourage you to read the full story. It will make your day!

Also, here’s a reminder that Giving Tuesday is coming up after Thanksgiving. This national day of generosity has become North Star’s annual fund drive, including our alumni appeal, each year. This would be the moment to make an annual gift to support our policy of working with all interested families. Thank you.
