Coaches: We need your help! @TuckerCenter is doing important work to better understand barriers and supports for women coaches of color. If you can, help this effort by participating in research. Coaches of all levels welcome.

Good coaching involves '"creating a 'fun, challenging and supportive' environment. 'However, many [mistakenly assume] that every coach knows how to do this well and that their motivation/background will translate to positive experiences for kids.'" nrpa.org/parks-recreation-ma…
