Dr. Diane Courington has been a wonderful asset to our newest site, ABE Kentucky. As the first-ever ABE Ambassador, Diane has advised the site on expanding the reach of ABE, resulting in partnerships that will bring the program to a wider, more diverse audience across Louisville. Her team describes her as “warm and authentic” and as someone who “empowers young people.” When she has shared her perspective, ideas, concerns, and wisdom with the ABE Kentucky team, it is “illuminating, and she creates a space where honest conversation and discourse can occur.” Her passion for reaching and educating students comes out in everything she does, and it was an amazing experience to watch her command the attention of the students at the Boys and Girls Club.

Diane, we look forward to meeting you in person (when travel permits). Until then, we can’t wait to see what else you will bring to the ABE program.
