\ud83c\udfdb\ufe0f Camp Autonomy<\/h3>\n

\n Each Witchcamp within the Reclaiming web is autonomous in its organization, format, content, and path leader\/teacher selection process.\n <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n

\ud83d\udccb Teacher Database Update<\/h3>\n

\n The WCC previously maintained a database of teacher bios, skills, and experience for organizers and selection committees to access.\n <\/p>\n

\n As of September 2024, this database is no longer operational. WCC continuity witches are seeking solutions and may help implement a new teacher database, subject to worldwide community desire and WCC capacity and resources.\n <\/p>\n <\/div>\n \n
