Welcome Our Newest Staff Member, Malika Jackson

By Stacy Cholewinski

CRA is pleased to announce the hiring of a new Administrative Assistant. Late this past winter Phillip Louis, our former assistant, left our organization — we sincerely thank him for his years of hard work and wish him well.

Malika's first responsibility is to be the main point of contact for CRA. All requests and inquiries originate with her and then are directed to the appropriate staff person. Her other responsibilities include assisting the staff with a wide variety of activities and projects in Administration, Communication, and Programs.

Malika Jackson comes to us from the University of Virginia where she received a BA in Anthropology. Malika formerly worked in the Department of Health and Human Services Maternal and Child Health Bureau in Rockville, Maryland.

Her work includes maintaining the multiple CRA databases (including Forsythe and CRN); answering inquiries that come into info@cra.org, by phone, and via regular mail; ordering office supplies and other materials along with general office coordination; preparing mailings; and assisting with accounting duties.

Malika can be reached at mjackson@cra.org.
