For the past four years WUMCRC has worked with Saint Louis University’s Public Policy Studies Department for both on-site and remote technical assistance on various projects.  This past September, WUMCRC is also working with Webster University as well for their first PR/Marketing intern position to assist in spreading the word about WUMCRC’s continued restoration with FPSE and CWE.

Also, we want to congratulate Vincent Haynes on his new position as commercial district manager at St. Louis Development Corporation.  WUMCRC wishes him continued success with his career.

This school year we welcome:
