Sites occasionally offer professional development and networking activities for alumni. The Alumni Directory serves as a valuable resource for current and former Fellows. It provides them with access to individuals at the local, state and national levels who may have dealt with similar problems or who can supply valuable information on a wide variety of education and human service issues.
