‘Lead for Inclusion’ Hosting Read-Along at Bemidji Public Library

Bemidji’s Lead for Inclusion is partnering with the Bemidji Public Library to host the non-profit’s first “Read for Inclusion” event.

Lead for Inclusion’s goal is to increase opportunities and accessibility for everyone in the Bemidji area. This event will feature an interactive story reading led by Lead for Inclusion’s Youth Leadership Board Members, as well as discussions about inclusion.

“Inclusion is not just based on the books; it’s based on what you have spread, whether it be with words or the physical or emotional ways of inclusion,” said Lead for Inclusion Board Member William Duncan.

“I think it’s really important for people to see themselves as adults, and as leaders,” added Shannon Murray, founder of Lead for Inclusion. “I mean, Will, you’re a phenomenal leader, and so for people to see you reading and sharing this is really important, too, I think.”

This event takes place on Saturday, April 5th from 2 to 3 PM. Everyone is welcome to attend.
