: I'm super excited! I'm happy to announce that I was accepted to North Carolina Education Policy Fellowship. At the start of this year, I wanted to learn more about #educationpolicy and how it relates to #cyber. This fellowship will give me the tools to learn and expand in this area. I can't wait to get started! This is going to be funnnn!

In cases where partnerships are deep move beyond transactional (few do), the street-level actors from industry are committed to positive youth development and broadening postsecondary opportunities.
