What Our Partners Are Saying

  • It was a 10/10 experience. [And Still We Rise] was so nice and helpful! All the students involved had such a great time and we learned so much!

    Gaina, Framingham BSU

  • “And Still We Rise has been a welcomed partner…to provide guidance and services to BIPOC families following a racially-motivated hate crime. They were able to quickly pull together a team of professional in the direct aftermath to support the families in this tragedy. Further, we continued our work with And Still We Rise in leading workshops focused on affinity groups to explore means to improve solidarity. The team at And Still We Rise has been engaged, attentive and very professional.”

    Meredith, Winthrop Department of Public Health & Clinical Services

  • Roberta Holmes has been extremely helpful and has gone above and beyond to create workable solutions for our needs at Mount Holyoke. And Salwa has met the needs of one of our students in a way that very few others could have. We look forward to continued work together.

    Amelia, Pause Wellness Center

  • Dr. Cesar is passionate, and absolutely unrivaled in connecting with my BIPOC students. She developed lessons to teach them self awareness, build community, and improve their overall understanding and comfortability in their Black/Brown skin. I am so grateful for the work of ASWR. EVERY school district needs an ASWR provider!
