Heather Mullen Starts With United Way of the Greater Lehigh Valley as Carbon County AmeriCorps Proje
Heather Mullen Starts With United Way of the Greater Lehigh Valley as Carbon County AmeriCorps Project Manager
Published: November 21, 2019
This PennSERVE grant funded position will lead the planning effort to develop an AmeriCorps program serving in the five Carbon County, PA school districts of Panther Valley, Lehighton, Weatherly, Jim Thorpe, and Palmerton. Through the planning grant, United Way of the Greater Lehigh Valley will explore individual school needs and the direct service interventions AmeriCorps members could provide that will best meet the needs of specific schools and students.
PennSERVE encourages, develops, and facilitates volunteerism and service, which builds upon the talents, strengths, opportunities, and challenges of people and communities in ways which enhance the quality of life for all Pennsylvanians. PennSERVE funds and supports national service efforts that engage Pennsylvania residents in strengthening our communities.
Heather has deep connections in Carbon County Schools from over ten years of experience in community outreach for Carbon Career and Technical Institute and Lehigh Carbon Community College (LCCC). She is a graduate of the CCEDC’s Leadership Carbon Program in partnership with LCCC and is a member of the Future Leaders of Carbon County – CCEDC. Heather previously assisted with data collection for the Carbon County Collaborative: The State of the Child and Family in Carbon County, where data is then used to drive new initiatives and support existing.
Heather is a resident of Jim Thorpe and will be working out of guest offices at The Carbon Chamber & Economic Development Corporation (CCEDC) and The Jim Thorpe Area School District Administrative offices in Carbon County. She is looking forward to learning about all of the efforts underway and connecting AmeriCorps to provide additional supports in Carbon County. The planning process is vital in developing the necessary details and data that will assist in providing a foundation to formulate an AmeriCorps Program.
