Success Stories
“Annie developed strong relationships with community partners and guided them through the nuances of a complex federal program. She listened to both the members and the partners and adapted the program to meet their needs. Annie was a clear communicator, maintained strong and appropriate boundaries and was respected and trusted by all.”
Allison Jordan, Former Executive Director of Children First of Buncombe County
“One of the very first decisions I made when I founded an outdoor school for teenagers was to hire Annie Jonas to design our extraordinary curriculum. Not only did Annie design the curriculum, but she also built and trained a team of talented guides, logistics managers, volunteers, and others to implement that curriculum.”
Jerry Casagrande, Executive Director, 3D Life Adventures, Alexandria, Virginia
“In addition to securing a grant and designing our GO TO GOAL! Program, Annie conducted a program evaluation for ABYSA that investigated and offered an assessment of our broader outreach program goals and impacts. Her evaluation work supported ABYSA's successful expansion of our outreach programs and helped our organization clarify the outcomes and impacts we seek through these programs."
Mike Rottjakob, Executive Director of Asheville Buncombe Youth Soccer Association/HFC

“I appreciate Dr. Jonas’s expertise with innovative educational practices. Her insightful commentary on our curriculum development (in this case focused on rigorous and engaging classes in the social studies for future teachers) was invaluable.”
