"This partnership will "You Matter" is the foundation of the movement at the Tehama County Department of Education, the SERRF afterschool program and around the world. One SERRF goal is for every site to acquire comments from as many people as possible, about what they are grate- ful for in a journal. The journal will then be sent to "Every Monday Matters" in Los Angeles where they will bring it to life and share it with the world. They hope to make this the world's largest gratitude journal.
