New Director of CoRAL's Student Engagement and Leadership Fellows Program 
We are pleased to announce that Karyn Cassella has joined the CoRAL Network as Program Director for the Washington Civic Engagement and Leadership Student Fellowship Program.
Many of you know Ms. Cassella from her years as Director of the Community Services Center at American University, where she developed and managed programs to support university volunteerism and service-learning. For over ten years, she has worked with a broad range of DC-area non-profits, mentoring young leaders and applying non-formal education techniques for creative training and community development. Her experience and dedication will be a great asset to all of CoRAL's programs! | ||||||
