Glenville/Uptown | Youth and Families
Courtney Green was born in Cleveland. Her commitment to service was instilled in her by her parents’ dedication to their community to make things better for others. Her passion to ensure youth are prepared for the future was cultivated from their example and her extensive experience with the Cleveland Metropolitan School District (CMSD). She is a Volunteer Coordinator for an annual health summit for boys and girls and is on the NAACP education committee. In the summer she has worked with V.G.S (Vocational Guidance Services) job training, Y.O.U (Youth Opportunity Unlimited) and will be a Scholar Experience Team Member for the Envision NYLF: Medicine (National Youth Leadership Forum). Her future project is to create a collaborative program to work with delinquent youth, their probation officers, and youth organizations. The program’s objective is to connect them to resources and mentors, before they get off probation, that will provide positive examples and direction, help them traverse the juvenile justice system, and ultimately reduce recidivism.
