Hello, I'm Courtney, and I'm the
president of Tucson Spellers.

00:00:06.160 --> 00:00:10.880 align:middle line:84%
We're a local nonprofit
here in Southern Arizona

00:00:10.880 --> 00:00:14.660 align:middle line:84%
that tries to reach
all non-speakers,

00:00:14.660 --> 00:00:17.640 align:middle line:84%
minimally speakers,
and unreliable speakers

00:00:17.640 --> 00:00:19.640 align:middle line:90%
here in Southern Arizona.

00:00:19.640 --> 00:00:23.840 align:middle line:84%
We have three main missions,
three main things we try to do,

00:00:23.840 --> 00:00:24.820 align:middle line:90%
creating community.

00:00:24.820 --> 00:00:30.720 align:middle line:84%
And we do that with events like
this and clubs and meetups.

00:00:30.720 --> 00:00:34.100 align:middle line:90%
We also do financial aid.

00:00:34.100 --> 00:00:37.260 align:middle line:84%
So if you're looking to
spell but money is an issue,

00:00:37.260 --> 00:00:39.720 align:middle line:90%
come and talk to us.

00:00:39.720 --> 00:00:42.100 align:middle line:84%
And we have a lending
library for boards.

00:00:42.100 --> 00:00:44.280 align:middle line:84%
And then last, we
are doing outreach.

00:00:44.280 --> 00:00:46.280 align:middle line:84%
We always want to let
people know about spelling

00:00:46.280 --> 00:00:47.760 align:middle line:90%
and bring more people in.

00:00:47.760 --> 00:00:50.680 align:middle line:84%
We did an amazing
building bridges

00:00:50.680 --> 00:00:55.120 align:middle line:84%
at [INAUDIBLE] conference, and
we sponsored a brand new S2C

00:00:55.120 --> 00:00:57.960 align:middle line:90%
practitioner here in Tucson.

00:00:57.960 --> 00:01:01.880 align:middle line:84%
Jade is here somewhere, but
that way we have more people

00:01:01.880 --> 00:01:03.560 align:middle line:90%
to teach spelling.

00:01:03.560 --> 00:01:05.420 align:middle line:90%
So that is Tucson Spellers.

00:01:05.420 --> 00:01:06.240 align:middle line:90%
Thank you.

00:01:06.240 --> 00:01:09.500 align:middle line:90%
