Connecting people, place, and planet through inclusion, justice, and sustainability.
What people say
"I cannot recommend Sarah at Intercultural Connections highly enough! Her commitment to fostering understanding and collaboration is truly inspiring; I've seen her take a room full of people who arrived feeling tense and defensive and then work some kind of...magic?! That same room full of people ended up laughing together over shared experiences in a way that didn't seem possible at the start. Her insights and experience have enhanced my own ability to navigate intercultural interactions with grace, and her down-to-earth approach makes the learning process fun. She's knowledgeable, passionate, and genuinely dedicated to making a positive impact. If you’re looking to deepen your cultural awareness and improve your ability to connect with others in a more meaningful way, look no further!"
