EngAGE is celebrating Thanksgiving all month!
EngAGE is thankful for the people who help us pursue our mission to transform affordable housing communities into vibrant centers of learning, wellness, and creativity. This week, we’ll be sharing photos and a bit of information about all of our staff members. Please visit our website to learn more about them.
Meloney Morse has a gift for bringing communities together with creativity and enthusiasm. She is an instructor, mentor, and master collaborator in creating community.
Miles Morse is a community builder, as well as a fitness, nutrition, and computer teacher in multiple EngAGE communities. He plays a key role in Orange County Food Distribution, and leads the after-school program at Parc Derian.
Brandy Nelson has recently joined EngAGE. Her educational background in sociology and business, combined with her experience in Human and Social Services work, and as an educator, make her a good fit for the work we do.
Essence Parker‘s passion for the betterment of vulnerable populations—including at-risk youth, older adults, and veteran demographics—has fueled her work in human and social services. This, plus her strong background in education, results in bringing diverse and inclusive programming to the community she serves.
Elizabeth Sampson is a long-time, dedicated Program Director as well as an actor/writer member of the Road Theatre Company. In addition to bringing creative programming to older adults, she also spearheads a successful annual toy drive for the children living at Vermont Family Apartments.
Laura Sardisco plays an integral role in facilitating and administering the vital Orange County Food Program, as well as providing social service connections to the Long Beach Senior Arts Colony community. Her background includes working to provide life-long learning, community service, and career opportunities through the creative arts for people with disabilities.
Thank you, EngAGE staff!
