Louise Baigelman, founder and CEO of Storyshares, a literacy organization aimed at improving adolescent literacy.

This inspired her to create Storyshares, focusing on developing engaging, culturally relevant reading materials for older students at lower reading levels.

 

Louise explains the organization’s innovative approach, which includes running writing contests to gather stories that meet the needs of struggling readers. 

 

She emphasizes the importance of building strong relationships throughout her journey.
