Message from the Board:
Wednesday, April 3, 2024
Dear CCC community,
Happy Spring 2024! Here's to warmer days and longer daylight hours, which bring the birds chirping and blossoms to the trees and flowers. As the springtime brings new buds and the promise of growth, the CCC Board has also been planting new seeds of growth and change in our programming for next year as well as making arrangements to welcome new board members too!
My name is Andrea Horton-Mericli and I am the Treasurer of the CCC Board, as well as one of the DEI Committee and Mentoring Committees members. I've been a part of the CCC Board since 2021 and I have learned so much from my other board members and the members themselves. I truly love being a part of this Board and helping to bring great programming to the CCC community and industry.
This past January, the CCC Mentoring Committee (made up of Adesuwa Igbineweka, Ethan Selinger, and myself), launched its second mentorship cohort, which has just passed the halfway point in their communication and will end in June. Last year's pilot program had 5 mentors and 5 mentees. This year, we have 9 mentors and 9 mentees, from which the CCC gained 12 new members, 4 of which are mentors and 8 who are mentees! We just did our check-in with our mentors and mentees to see how things are going and got some wonderful responses and constructive feedback that we will use to help improve next year's cohort! So, keep an eye out for communication in Fall 2024 about joining our 3rd mentorship cohort (as a mentor or mentee)! Thank you to those that participated in last year's cohort and to those currently participating in this year's! We are learning so much from you and are so happy to hear how much you are learning from each other!
Our DEI committee is busy planning some wonderful DEI-focused programming for next program year. We are very excited about some of the items on our agenda and hope you will be too! Items include roundtable panels around heritage months and some deeper DEI-focused topics. We are still finalizing and coordinating some of the programming, but know you will love it! If you have a DEI-focused topic suggestion for programming, feel free to email us at dei@careercounselorsne.org. We'd love to hear from you!
Have a wonderful rest of your Spring!
Respectfully,
CCC Board Member and Treasurer
