Best mail of the day! Thank you to @WPR's amazing graphics team for helping update our @WHYsconsin postcards to reflect some of the stories we have done and the diversity of people we work with and aspire to work with. Here's to reaching more communities across Wisconsin 🥳
Lets unbox these postcards and get them to a library near you! WHYsconsin is a community-driven reporting project. We put your questions at the center of our reporting. For every story, we try to connect with the person who asked the question and work with them to find answers.
"Getting outdoors is critical to the well-being of each of us and especially children. It affects and impacts our physical well-being, our mental well-being and then when you add in the elements of being in a camp environment, these positive outcomes are really amplified."
