PRESENTER: June Ahn, Orange County Educational Advancement Network
TOPIC: Please join us as we hear from the Orange County Educational Advancement Network (OCEAN)!

ABOUT the member spotlight series:
In our newly named member spotlight series, we hear from NNERPP members about their partnerships, research findings, and impact, similar to the NNERPP Virtual Brown Bags in previous years. Member spotlights will alternate monthly with the recently introduced workshop series, where we take on RPP challenges and design possible solutions together.
