2011 Year in Review: Our Volunteers and Partners
Our Amazing Volunteers and Partners
Our Interns and Volunteers
We could not do everything we do without our interns and volunteers. From helping out at tours and forums, to parsing through pages of data and drafting dynamic reports, they do it all.
We don't have room to thank everyone, but we wish to recognize the outstanding contributions made by:
- CSG Policy Interns: Matt Schuneman, Alanna McKeeman, and Carla Maria Kayanan
- CSG Communications Interns: Chantelle Tolliver, Katie Young, and McKendre Jay
- CSG Volunteers: Ryan Hall, Jamie Scott, and Claire Gron

accomplish so much.
