Nova


nova.pngCARE and NOVA want to personally share this new initiative that the organization is piloting.  NOVA has a three-year grant to train young college students to become advocates. Portion of the training will be conducted in person in Washington, D.C. and a paid internship opportunity with UTEP CARE or other community agencies are available.   Travel costs are paid through the grant, in addition, the student selected will receive a stipend.

UTEP is one of five institutions participating and it would be great to have a good representation.
