Visit Options

Two ways to bring ICAN1 to your students

Every visit is built around LaVerne's dual perspective as a school counselor and parent coach — practical, age-appropriate, and rooted in the same growth mindset and confidence-building themes found throughout the ICAN1 book catalog.

I.

In-Person School Visits

LaVerne visits your school for an engaging, age-appropriate session with students — assemblies, classroom visits, or small-group sessions.

  • Elementary, middle, and high school formats available
  • Focus areas: growth mindset, confidence, emotional wellness, reading motivation
  • Can be paired with a book fair or classroom book sets
II.

Virtual Visits

A live virtual session for classrooms, library programs, or districts anywhere — no travel required.

  • Live video call format, sized to fit a class period
  • Same practical, engaging content as in-person visits
  • Flexible scheduling across time zones

Who It's For

Schools, libraries, and community groups

Perfect for elementary and middle schools, school counseling programs, library reading events, and community or church youth programs looking for a practical, encouraging speaker. LaVerne also brings this same approach to PTAs and community groups for speaking engagements.

How It Works

Three steps to moving forward

I

We talk it through

Book a call and we'll sit down together so LaVerne can get a real sense of what's going on and where she can help.

II

We find the fit

She'll walk you through her approach and the ways you could work together, so you can see what fits your life and schedule.

III

We get started

If it feels right, you book your first session or visit. If not, she'll point you toward other resources — no pressure either way.
