Portrait of an Oakcrest Graduate
Laura O'Neill, Class of 1996
When Oakcrest school nurse and alumna Laura O’ Neill (Oakcrest Class of 1996) traveled to Romania for two weeks in July with Divine Mercy University’s Center for Trauma and Resiliency Studies, it was a life-changing experience. Along with fellow DMU graduate students and counselors, Laura spent two weeks doing counseling work with gypsies and impoverished Romanians who had either survived or witnessed trauma of various kinds.
