November 2022 Newsletter

To ensure that Wellspring STARS have a voice in decision making and planning conversations at Wellspring, individuals on the STARS Leadership Committee meet once a week to discuss important topics relating to STARS experiences at Wellspring. Individuals serving on the committee were elected by Wellspring STARS to represent their interests and can serve up to a one year term.
