Meet Abby

My name is Abby Webb, and I am the new Elder Program Coordinator for the Louisville Refugee Elder Program!  I am so excited to begin working with the elders, the volunteers, and everyone else involved with this amazing program.  It was suggested to me by the former coordinator that a short 'get to know Abby' post would be a good idea to publish on the blog...

I'm from St. Louis and went to school at the University of Missouri - go Tigers!! I got my bachelor's and master's degrees in Social Work and I've been working with the student ministry at a church organization for the last four and half years. I just got married this summer and moved to Louisville so that my husband, Ryan, can attend Southern Seminary here. I love cooking and baking, traveling around the world, reading, iced tea, the St. Louis Cardinals and the Mizzou Tigers. I did my undergrad practicum at a refugee resettlement agency in Missouri, and I am so excited to be working with refugees again! :)
