Advisory Council
Our Advisory Council is comprised of community leaders and Communication Department alumni who are the backbone to our organization; using their talents and strengths to direct us in areas of marketing, fundraising, branding, and networking opportunities for our students as they work through NPACE. These individuals will assist us in communicating the goals and standards of our mission to the community. Each member of the Advisory Council brings years of experience and specialized skills that are an asset to our unique blending of theory and service-learning curriculum.
