Kathryn McCann, Providence College, RI
While Kathryn’s community engagement has taken many forms throughout her college experience, it has all focused on “relationship building with purpose.” The driving force behind her advocacy work, organizing campaigns, and community-based research is a commitment to relationships. Kathryn’s dedication to relationship-building service is based in the value which her hard-working Irish Catholic family raised her to uphold–the belief that Christ is in all people, most especially in the oppressed and downtrodden.
