New Internal & External Program Directors Selected
First, I want to congratulate Julie Vo and Scott Iseri in their new role as External and Internal Program Directors.
Both Julie and Scott are familiar faces to the PM Family and they have been a part of PM in various capacities.
With their experiences, I look forward to seeing them improve PM and continuing to get the PM Family involve in events and activities.
Both are passionate about continuing to foster the "family love" atmosphere within PM and focusing on the youth and their families.
Together with the team of coordinators, mentors and Board, I am confident that PM will have a successful 2008-2009 academic year under new leadership.
On the other hand, I have a sad announcement to make as well. As my partner and crime in restructuring Camp for Youth to create Project MotiVATe,
Angela MinhTu Nguyen has stepped down as PM advisor/consultant to concentrate on her career path of obtaining her PhD.
Angela has been instrumental in applying her Organizational Development skills to create PM into a program that focuses on measurable means such as
academics as well as the connecting CSULB Masters program to create training materials and surveys for PM. Angela came to PM in 2001 as a volunteer
in the kitchen for camp and ever since, she has committed to championing PM causes wherever she goes. On behalf of PM, THANK YOU for all your hard work
and dedication to the program. Your unconditional love for PM will never go unnoticed. Good luck with your PhD program.
In addition, THANK YOU to q for your continuous support, your gas and your driving time. ;)
Please join me in supporting Julie and Scott in their new role to manage PM towards a successful academic year and send our warmest gratitude to
Angela for her tremendous contributions to PM.
