People & Stories/Gente y Cuentos

People & Stories / Gente y Cuentos, a reading and discussion program offered in English or Spanish, creates unique access to literature. Adults and young adults who have had limited opportunities to experience the power of literature work in small groups led by a trained coordinator. Participants draw upon their own experiences to discuss complex short stories. As they examine the poetics, issues, and values the stories explore, people can discover ways to see things differently.
