Tell us a bit about what you appreciate about them as an RCB: I appreciate how much Katie cares, listens and wants to increase participation with community members. Sometimes are meetings, though introductory, might not serve an immediate need, Katie’s recall to experience and conversations helps her bring in those members in future projects, helping ensure no one is left behind.
