=Overview=

Personal stories are a particular potent example of the power in digital storytelling. To quote The Center for Digital Storytelling: “Everyone has powerful stories to tell” and “Sharing stories can lead to positive change”. We encourage you to read CDS’s values and principles from which these quotes are drawn: http://www.storycenter.org/about/.
