CAMBA in the News
CAMBA Program Director Jarrod Colston interviewed on News 12 Brooklyn.
The opening of CAMBA’s Marketplace store at the Brooklyn Academy High School (BAHS) attracted media coverage by News 12 Brooklyn, who promptly dubbed BAHS a “cool school.” CAMBA staff and the administration at BAHS, a New York City Community School, created the Marketplace that serves as a free resource for students needing household and personal care items. The stock includes haircare, skincare and personal hygiene products; cleaning and laundry products, household accessories, clothing, and much more. The goal is to enhance student engagement at school, resulting in improved academic performance and better attendance.
