Dr. Deanna BlackwellCongratulations to Dr. Deanna Blackwell, director, TRIO Student Support Services, who recently completed the Leadership Springfield program through the Greater Springfield Chamber of Commerce. Deanna’s team developed a project for the YMCA to deliver a series of “Adulting Classes.” These classes will teach life skills such as basic professional and personal etiquette, creating healthy meals on a budget and resume writing. This curriculum project will have an impact on young adults who are graduating high school and/or college and entering the adult world.
