Colleen McCauley-Brown has been engaged in advancing children's health policy for the past six years at Philadelphia Citizens for Children and Youth (PCCY). Her work at PCCY is grounded in her prior experience of helping manage a nurse-run community health center in a public housing development in North Philadelphia for eight years. It was at the health center that she fell in love with working with teenagers. But it was over 30 years ago that she fell in love with dancing - and she is still at it taking one class a week to fulfill her need to move.

Being a member of the RDDC Board of Trustees allows Colleen to match two of her keen interests: supporting youth and connecting them with dance and the performing arts. Colleen received her undergraduate degree in nursing at the University of Pennsylvania and a Master of Public Health degree from Temple.
