Kaileen Alston, Director of Youth & Young Adult Ministries, has announced that she has accepted an offer from MBE Capital Partners to become Vice President for Strategic Partnerships, and will be leaving the diocesan staff effective January 13, 2017. She has worked at Episcopal House since March 2004 when she was first hired as Youth Missioner.

Kai is working with diocesan staff to insure a smooth transition of her responsibilities, including Convention youth pages, Confirmation retreats and NEWARK ACTS, as well as youth and young adult activities.

Plans for a farewell event to celebrate Kai's years of ministry with the youth and young adults of the diocese will be announced at a later date.
