@MattFrickk @ProjExplore 2/ Contributing our talents is paramount also. Lending our expertise and experience amplifies the work underway and also ensures @ProjExplore can continue to be as impactful as it has been. Whether it's strategy or design, all hands are needed #ScienceofAssociateBoards

Not only is a JB going to help with keeping our message and mission relevant, they also build a bridge to the next generation. And speaking of building...we were so pleased to have the support of our JB to help w/our STEMkit build! #scienceofassociateboards #scienceofjuniorboards

@iamtacollinsiii @MattFrickk @ProjExplore We often don’t realize the hour we take to give back, yields such powerful returns that may not be seen at the moment, but the ripple effect is real!

@MattFrickk @ProjExplore 1/ Great question! Time is such a limited resource. The essence of time is truly being present. Our active participation is crucial to this work, especially for me, as a person of color. Representation is such a key element. #ScienceofAssociateBoards #ScienceofJuniorBoards

@iamtacollinsiii @ProjExplore @MattFrickk That notion of being a part of the process is so important to @ProjExplore! Students at the Center and driving the learning is critical.

@ProjExplore @MattFrickk @ProjexED ABSOLUTELY! I still myself as that teenager with so much potential. I tend to forget I'm an adult with experience, power, and access. To sit at an essential table and contribute to the decision-making is MIND-BLOWING. #ScienceofAssociateBoards #ScienceofJuniorBoard

@ProjExplore @iamtacollinsiii @MattFrickk I completely agree! With over 20 years of participants having @iamtacollinsiii be a a part of the JB is incredible!

@ProjExplore @iamtacollinsiii @MattFrickk The development of the Junior Board for @ProjExplore was organic. We did not set out to start one but rather we started to see an interest from young professionals. Junior boards can fuel enthusiasm and creativity for organizations!

@MattFrickk @ProjExplore @ProjexED 3/ It was through @ProjExplore I reignited my ability to imagine and learned the importance of understanding the past to create OUR ideal future. I truly felt seen and heard as a youth of color. They believed in me (and still do) #ScienceofAssociateBoards
