Now, for the first time, we’re excited and deeply honored to be launching a project that lifts up your stories through video. To see your faces and hear your voices — this is yet another rich gift.

The series begins with the voices of our first seven participants: James, Marta, Noah, Vishal, Claire, Wendy, and Adetola. Below we offer a short video featuring excerpts from each of their interviews followed by links to their individual stories.
