Caroline J. Peak has been a committed community leader, engager and volunteer for over thirty five years. She has been a community organizer dedicated to school reform and an advocate for helping build better schools by volunteering in Cleveland Schools, serving on district-wide committees, PTA’s, school community councils and advisory boards, and campaigning for levies. Through her mentorship for eighth graders in the True2U program at Memorial School, she was inspired to create the “Collinwood Community Youth Academy” (CCYA). CCYA focuses on supporting youth ages 12 and above to become “A Better You” by engaging self-discovery, identifying their strengths, learning how to create a better community through problem solving, and engaging with guest speakers who share their success stories. Paralleling this, she sits on the Executive Board of Northeast Shores Development Corporation and Cleveland Housing Network. Caroline is a Certified Public Librarian, and earned a Bachelor of Liberal Arts Degree from Meyer’s University and a Masters of Library Science from Kent State University.
