About us

Stephanie Bien, Stephanie Jacobs and Ned Jacobs joined forces to create “Get It Out!”

“Get It Out!” is a creative platform for students founded by Stephanie Bien, Stephanie Jacobs and Ned Jacobs. The aim is to identify pressing issues and engage with students to gain insight, commentary and identify solutions.  Students have a strong voice and this is a constructive way to get their thoughts, feelings, ideas and solutions out.
