NNWP Leadership

After attending a Northern Nevada Writing Project Invitational Institute, many TCs are inspired to come back and participate in additional projects sponsored by the NNWP. TCs who participate in the programs often propose their own ideas for projects they would like to lead. This process is how our NNWP leadership pool grows. On this page, you can meet the NNWP Teacher Consultants who are currently serving leadership roles at the NNWP.
