I would love to give a warm shout out to Mother Earth Literacies, LLC because of how life changing it has been to work with them. Monica Miles and Kate Haq are an excellent pair!!!!! They take the time to really help me understand this foreign language called the nonprofit world. I celebrate every win right along with them. They are really helping Buffalo communities.

I've celebrated my first big win under their guidance and I can't wait to secure an even better future. Our Mommie Village has a much firmer foundation with the support from these ladies. This team work definitely makes the dream work! 💜💜💜💜💜  Thank you!!!!!

It was truly an enlightening and powerful training session for our MBK Teachers with Mother Earth Literacies. The sessions which focused on Decolonizing the Niagara River Basin: An Interdisciplinary Approach to Place-Based Curriculum Building, elevated the narrations of the Tuscarora People, as well as gave our teachers a ‘how-to’ curriculum guide that centered the contributions, histories, and triumphs of Indigenous Peoples in our local community. The curriculum and teacher developed lessons will serve as a great precursor to our MBK Male Academy field excursions to the Niagara Power Authority. Thank you, Mother Earth Literacies, for developing and providing courageous curriculum and spaces that are culturally inclusive of historically marginalized communities of color.

One of the core values of our educator preparation programs is the use of asset-based, responsive pedagogies. Mother Earth Literacies has been able to offer tremendously valuable experiences for teacher residents who are expanding their ability to enact such pedagogies in local classrooms. MEL has provided illustrative examples and has been a model for our cohorts. We are so grateful for their partnership and support.
