Today we say goodbye to our amazing Director of ETA, Jenna Fisher, as she wraps up her last day with us. 💙

Jenna has been such a vital part of our ETA program & CCNEO as a whole—bringing energy, compassion, and leadership to every part of her role. Her dedication to our participants, staff, and mission has made a lasting impact, and her passion for helping others grow will not be forgotten.

While we’re sad to see her go, we’re so excited for what lies ahead for her. Please join us in wishing Jenna all the best in her next adventure. Thank you, Jenna, for everything—you will be greatly missed!
