CISV

CISV is an international peace organization that I’ve been a part of for 8 years now (click here for the CISV USA website)

Starting off with Village in Vancouver at 11 years old…

US and French delegations on a hike
seeing the sights of Vancouver
US delegation national night
our entire Village

…then participating in a Step Up with São Paulo the next year…

before covid hit and I was unable to do international programs. But this summer I went to Fortnight in Chattanooga!

While I love the programs, our local chapter has so many fun activities that I’ve helped plan and participated in throughout the years.

Sometimes, we connect with other national chapters too!
