I want to addressing many issues in our social system.

She has been extremely consistent. She has been associated with Oakley Square since January 2020,\u201d said Jill Glenn, executive director, Community Partnerships.<\/p>\n<p>A second-year student in the Master of Arts in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thechicagoschool.edu\/academics\/program-finder\/?fwp_field_of_study=counseling-psychology\">Counseling Psychology<\/a>, Margaret volunteers with children who live in Oakley Square Apartments. Oakley Square is a low-income housing complex on Chicago\u2019s West Side. She works as a volunteer. So, she provides the children social and emotional support as well as homework help.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was so honored to have Jill Glenn nominate me for this award,\u201d said Margaret. \u201cIt\u2019s a great feeling when someone you hold in such high regard recognizes your work.\u201d \u201cMargaret has done extremely well with the transition to the virtual tutoring program,\u201d Jill tacks on. In commenting on Margaret\u2019s hard work during the pandemic. \u201cHer students have shown a lot of progress. We strongly felt that the Newman fellowship will help her to do more.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>About the fellowship<\/h3>\n<p>Named for its founder Frank Newman, an advocate for civic engagement in higher education, the one-year fellowship provides students with training and resources that nurture their assets and passions. Virtual learning and networking opportunities will aid Margaret and her 2021 cohort in becoming part of a national network of engaged student leaders while they develop strategies for social change.<\/p>\n<h3>Future plans<\/h3>\n<p>Margaret will continue to volunteer at Oakley Square even after she begins her new internship at AMITA Health St. Mary\u2019s. She brims with excitement when talking about what\u2019s to come with Newman. &#8220;I will be matched with a mentor through the Newman Civic Fellowship. It will mean attending a conference in November to meet fellow candidates and discuss social justice issues. I look forward to getting involved!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are proud to recognize each of these extraordinary student leaders. So, we are thrilled to have the opportunity to engage with them,\u201d said Campus Compact President Andrew Seligsohn.<\/p>\n<\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Margaret Annunziata believes very passionately that by giving her time and expertise, she can make a difference.
