The OPW welcomes Deb Rookey

Deb Rookey is the 2018-2019 Young Adult Volunteer (YAV) for the Office of Public Witness. The Young Adult Volunteer program is a faith-based year of service with a focus on community building. Deb has always been interested in social justice and advocacy work and was engaged in such work on-campus while at Washington University, where she graduated last May. For Deb’s YAV year, she is working with Catherine Gordon on several international issues, with a focus on Congo and the Middle East. She is also working to establish community partners and mission projects at Northminster Presbyterian Church.Deb hopes to take the skills that she cultivates here at OPW to inform her work as she enters law school next August.
