We, as SP Administrative Directors and Educators, have been so busy. We’re engaged in trying to keep our programs running, reshaping the educational and technical frameworks of what we do and how we do it, and navigating social injustices and political pressures throughout the pandemic. It’s been difficult to find moments to just pause and breathe. As our field began taking that first collective breath, I found I was missing the voice of our SPs who have been absent from our daily work. No longer passing them in our centers and chatting with them regularly, I longed to hear from them.
