MHCB Program Manager Notes:
BLJ is a high cost program. Each purchase made on their site is meant for 30 students. They offer a commercial licence to use the journal across all students in a school, and the cost was high, and only valid for one year. This licence also requires you to print and bind each journal on your own time.
