GLR Week 2022 is now in the rear-view mirror. We are grateful for everyone who registered, attended, spoke and, in many other ways, helped to make this event a success! Throughout the week, 18 state-led organizations hosted and sponsored 20 state-based events, recognizing the progress made and the lessons learned. These webinars, fishbowls, documentary screenings, panel discussions, and story times were well attended and well received. The week-long collection of state-focused, constituency-tilted and plenary events affirmed “bright spots and silver linings” as a more-than-mantra strategy through which promising explorations, discoveries, innovations, and improvisations prompted by the pandemic are recruited to play catalytic roles in co-constructing the hoped-for “new normal.” 

With so many excellent offerings, many of us missed one or more of the sessions we wanted to attend. Please visit the GLR Week 2022 site to access recordings for each session, along with all accompanying materials. 

We hope you enjoyed the conversations and had a chance to share your “bright spots and silver linings” insights, lessons learned, and updates and progress reports on all of the great work that has happened this past year. Beyond GLR Week, we hope you will continue to engage with us and each other through CGLR’s Community Learning for Impact and Improvement Platform (CLIP). We look forward to continuing the conversation with you. 

Below are brief highlights from the five plenary sessions.
