CAST supports New Hampshire educators through Learning Designed.

In 2021, I had the privilege of working with CAST colleagues for six months as part of my Fulbright Scholarship to Boston. They agreed to a day a week with them, working on the review of the UDL Guidelines. While I expected a warm welcome, the entire CAST team's generosity was more than I would have ever expected. In the Covid-prescribed work-from-home mode, I was assigned two CAST colleagues, Jenna Gravel and Nicole Tucker-Smith, whom I now consider friends, to connect with me. We connected online before I arrived in Boston, and once there, we had weekly virtual collaborative meetings to review checkpoints and look at the new Guidelines. What I loved was that Jenna and Nicole were authentic in their conversations with me from the outset and welcomed and valued my perspective. What we created was a learning community of three with branches to the wider CAST community. I remember my welcome at the first CAST staff meeting and the fun Google doc of ""things for Mags to do"" that included invitations to lunches, a visit to the CAST office, and people's hometowns. A conversation with David Rose, which led to a podcast, was also arranged. My experience validated my work at home in Ireland and showed me that the CAST team doesn't just talk UDL. They live it. One of the little nuggets Jenna, Nicole and I discussed was the hope of a UDL International Symposium in Ireland, an idea that came to fruition with the support of Jenna and CAST in 2023.

When I first met David Rose, while I was working at WGBH as head of its Media Access Group and National Center for Accessible Media, I knew that we would be sharing our mission and values in tangible and productive ways. The communities that we wanted to serve together tied our bonds, and as my staff met CAST's, the relationship just grew and grew.

I loved the sense of community I felt while interning at CAST during my master's year. The camaraderie across the team was evident, and I felt so welcomed even though I was there just once a week. It was clear that there was a commitment to supporting learners at the margins to thrive and a work environment in which everyone present was an equal member of the team.
