Kari DeCelle

Senior Project Manager

b

  • I have essentially grown up at CARS for the past 14 years. Early on I developed a passion for supporting those who serve youth through mentoring programs, which then led to supporting the prevention field and then expanded to mental health and wellness.
  • The people I work with, the relationships that I’ve built, and the significance of what we do are why I come to the work I do.
  • I stand for helping and supporting others. I stand with children, youth/young adults, parents, families, and professionals in the fields of mental health and wellness, prevention, and education.
  • I enjoy the challenge of taking information and making it aesthetically pleasing and digestible.

I wanted to thank you both [Kari and another colleague] SO VERY MUCH for our Safe Zone Train the Trainer event. Everything went super smoothly, and the training was excellent! Truly, a valuable and necessary component to our colleges and district.”
