Welcome to the Debrief

  Abstract illustration of a white hand holding a large envelope in an ordered collection of smaller envelopes. The envelopes have colorful scenes on them, with the large one showing hands joining together, an excited person wearing headphones, and someone in a garden working with a rollator. The others have patterns and colors and snippets of illustrations used elsewhere on the newsletter. Signed, Sonaksha.
