## Overview

Materials like this can only be the product of a strong team lending their unique wisdom and expertise over an extended period of time. We are overjoyed to get to work with the folx identified below and could not ask for better collaborators. We've separated out people in our core 'design team' from those who provided feedback on a smaller scale but everyone listed on this page was absolutely invaluable to this effort.
