Spokane student achieves national recognition

Published on

Kevin Glover, an MS4 from Spokane, seen with his fiancé, Kelsey, has been named a Pisacano Scholar. The Kentucky-based Pisacano Scholars Leadership Program provides education, leadership training and support from the final year of medical school through three years of residency in family medicine.

From the Pisacano Scholars announcement: In Glover’s senior year of college, “he received a grant to develop a trauma-informed outdoor leadership curriculum for at-risk adolescents. Working with a youth-serving adventure non-profit, Kevin brought together regional experts on developmental psychology, outdoor leadership professionals and youth advocates to build an eight-week summer curriculum to empower participants through adventure leadership.”

“He got to spend those eight weeks guiding a group of incredible teens through alpine climbing, backpacking, and white-water rafting.”

There are photos of Glover’s work outdoors in our Instagram post. You can find the full announcement from the Pisacano Foundation here.
