GU4LA Students, Staff Share Their Stories in ‘Pandemic Perspectives’

Dozens of GEAR UP 4 LA students and educators had the opportunity to share their stories of struggles and resilience during the pandemic in "Pandemic Perspectives," a collection of inspiring personal narratives developed by PLUS ME Project. The authors were celebrated during a virtual launch of the book, which took two years to develop, in February. "The 'Pandemic Perspective' collects students' feelings and experiences in an extraordinary time," GEAR UP 4 LA Project Director Lois Bramwell said. "It's as much a shared diary as it is a time capsule."
