Lawrence is VISTA Morgan County head

Morgan County Partnership welcomed Angela Lawrence as an AmeriCorps VISTA (Volunteers In Service To America) in November. She will be devoted to developing The 40 Developmental Assets Program in Morgan County.

The Developmental Assets are 40 common sense, positive experiences and qualities which support children in their abilities to become caring, responsible, successful adults. The program uses research-based methods to create structured activities which support children and their assets.

For more information on The 40 Developmental Assets or how the Morgan County Partnership can bring them to the youth programs, call 304-258-7807. To see how VISTAs make a difference in communities across the United States, contact 1-800-WV-HELPS.
