Read Better Be Better

24 years strong, the @spjphx Valley Publicity Summit remains the place for AZ PR pros + journalists to connect. Our first year attending was all about real conversations, new media connections, and the power of ethical storytelling. #PublicRelations #SPJ

We held a special mock public meeting at Phoenix city Council Chambers with @readbetteraz. Local high school students participating in Read Better Be Better’s Pathways to Civic Leadership program presented actionable solutions to real challenges in their schools and communities. The students were awesome! Empowering young people to use their voices is one of the most meaningful investments we can make for the future of Phoenix . Thank you, Changemakers!
