Policy

[close] "Today's reader; tomorrow's leader." - Margaret Fuller. This a book club meets once every two months to discuss history, political and socioeconomic policy books.

[close] The Institute for Working Families recognizes that when Hoosiers are financially stable, they can achieve their full potential and better contribute to their communities. Policy plays an important role in building families' economic well-being. In order to do this we have to do a LOT of reading. This group is to connect with our followers and supporters and allow them to see what we are reading and connect with us about those books.

[close] This space is designed for us, as a cohort, to share and exchange book suggestions that inspire our thinking as educators and graduate students. The idea is simple: any member can recommend a book—whether it’s related to education theory, policy, leadership, pedagogy, or even broader works that help us reflect on learning, equity, and social change. By gathering our recommendations in one place, we create a shared library of ideas that can spark conversations, deepen our perspectives, and support both our academic journey and our professional practice. Everyone is encouraged to contribute titles, short reflections, or even discussion questions to help the group engage meaningfully with each suggestion. Together, we can turn reading into a collaborative experience and continue building a community of thoughtful, curious educators.
