Session Speakers
Cris Young was a Head Start child and parent and is also a first-generation college graduate. She obtained her K-12 English as a Second Language Licensure in 2006, her master's in Educational Leadership in 2014, and K-12 Principal Licensure in 2016. She has extensive experience in the public and private school systems as a coach, paraprofessional, teacher, and administrator. She remembers clearly how eye-opening it was for her to teach in the Migrant Seasonal Head Start (MSHS) Program and the Migrant Education Program (MEP) in the summer. After a few years, there was an opportunity for her to take on the role of the summer MEP Coordinator, which she held for 19 years. Currently, she continues to advocate for highly mobile families as the Deputy Director of Migrant Education Services for Tri-Valley Opportunity Council. She has seen her students grow up and turn into parents, always trying to do better each day. Migratory families will always hold a special place in her heart as her passion for education continues to grow.
Noemi Treviño is the Migrant Education Program Specialist and grant reviewer for Title II programs at the Minnesota Department of Education since 2000. She has 24 years of experience working with English learners and the Migrant Education Program in the Division of Access and Opportunity.
