    Did you know that several SSPL colleagues come to work via public transportation? Many of us also bike or walk to work and carpool!

  • REFLECTION QUESTION
    Health & Equity Practice Mindfulness
    What was it like to practice mindfulness? If this is a practice for you already, what was something new you understood in practicing during Earth Month?

    Something new I understood is that perfection is the enemy of progress.
