Fall 2023 marked a return to regular Deaton Scholar program activities, with a full cohort of scholars led by co-directors and supported by a team of scholar advisory board members. DSP Teams investigated and developed project ideas that address local and regional community needs.


The fall 2023 co-directors collaborated to engage the new cohort of scholars in key questions and important principles for addressing issues in our communities. Discussions included how to create sustainable solutions and how to monitor and evaluate implementation to support success.
Members of the Scholar Advisory Board provided coaching to the DSP teams and other guidance to grow the impact of the program on individual scholars and our communities.
