StoryCorps mission is to provide people of

all backgrounds and beliefs with the


opportunity to record, share and preserve
the stories of our lives. We do this to remind
one another of our shared humanity, to
strengthen and build the connections
between people, to teach the value of
listening, and to weave into the fabric of
our culture the understanding that
everyones story matters. At the same
time, we are creating an invaluable
archive for future generations.
