2022 Year in Review

2022
YEAR IN REVIEW

LETTER FROM THE BOARD CHAIR AND EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
Dear Friend,
During the 2021-2022 academic year, Dwight Hall students were optimistic about returning to
in-person service and resuming some semblance of normalcy. However, we continued to deal with
challenges for our students and community as the successive waves of COVID variants kept us
from breaking free of the necessary safety restrictions. Dwight Hall persevered as a community
and change agent dedicated to service and justice.
In the face of these challenges, the Hall adapted by:
• continuing to support the virtual and creative efforts of dozens of student-led
member groups to serve and advocate;
• growing and expanding the reach of the 2022 Summer Fellows program to
New Haven, New York City, and communities across the country;
Dwight Hall at Yale nurtures and inspires students
as leaders of social change and advances justice and
service in New Haven and around the world.
Engage: Forging trusted partnerships with New Haven neighborhoods, organizations, and
agencies through community-engaged service.
In 2022, the Hall returned to in-person service at the end of the spring semester and helped
seventy-four Dwight Hall member groups reorient to the local community.
Grow: Developing students’ intellectual, moral, civic, and creative capacities to the fullest
with experiential learning, internships, fellowships, mentorships, and trainings.
Dwight Hall significantly expanded fellowship offerings to include new programs such as Member
Group Fellows, broadened the FOCUS on New Haven Camp Yale Program to a record number of
participants and community partners, and launched an ambitious expansion plan for growing the
Summer Fellows program.
• advancing the Yale Prison Education Initiative’s expansion into a women’s
correctional facility in Danbury; and
• welcoming U.S. Grant Foundation middle schoolers back to the Hall for the
first time since 2019.
Two important lessons emerged from these
experiences. One was that responding to the urgent
needs of communities in New Haven and beyond
was as critical as ever. While the Hall prioritizes
student initiative at the center of its work, we
also need to ensure the work meets the needs of
community partners. Another lesson was that
community engagement, public service, and seeking
social justice are not optional add-ons to Dwight Hall students’ college experience and instead
are essential components to their learning and formation as Yalies preparing for lives that include
service and leadership in the world after graduation.
These lessons learned from a time of protracted uncertainty have spurred the Hall to make a
greater commitment to inspiring students as leaders of social change and to advance justice and
service in New Haven and around the world. The times we are living in more than ever call for
compassionate and inventive leaders who listen and respond to the needs of their community.
Dwight Hall is committed to redoubling its efforts to nurture those leaders. Change happens here.
Yours in Service,
Responding to the urgent
needs of communities in
New Haven and beyond
was as critical as ever.
Advance: Supporting intergenerational community-building collaborative projects and incubating
innovative solutions that bring about lasting change in New Haven and around the world.
The Yale Prison Education Initiative began offering Yale College courses to incarcerated women in the
Danbury Federal Correctional Institution, the New Haven Civic Allyship Initiative raised awareness
about voting rights in partnership with the Full Citizens Coalition, Co-Op After School saw its highest
number of participants since the start of the pandemic, and the Muslim Leadership Lab hosted artist
and activist Lauren Schreiber.

SUMMER FELLOWS STUDENT SPOTLIGHT
The Dwight Hall Summer Fellows
program supports students looking
to form lasting relationships with the
New Haven community and beyond.
For many years, the Yale Club of New
Haven has supported this program by offering unique
opportunities for students to dedicate themselves to
creating social change.
Jocelyne Argüelles ’23, a 2022 Dwight
Hall Summer Fellow, interned with
Leadership Education & Athletics
Partnership (LEAP), a New Haven
nonprofit serving youth ages seven
through twenty-four. Jocelyne worked
on eliminating barriers for young
people and their families to engage in
the programs and resources that LEAP
offers.
“I appreciated having the opportunity to speak to families
and youth that live in New Haven because even though I
have been in New Haven for the past three years, I would
not have grown to know New Haven in the way I have
this summer if I had not worked with LEAP,” she says.
“Being able to hear directly from people about
what they need helps me think about how I can
give back to this community and harness my
privilege as a Yale student in New Haven to
uplift communities.” —Jocelyne Argüelles ’23
ENGAGE & GROW
FOCUS on New Haven 2022
FOCUS on New Haven is a Camp Yale Program founded
in 1991 and administered by Dwight Hall. It engages Yale
College first-years, sophomores, transfer students, and
Eli Whitney students in community service, activism, and
discussion within and around New Haven. Students are
organized into small groups led by one to two FOCUS
student leaders—termed “FOCUS families”—who work on
service projects together, meet local change-makers, and think
critically about the complex relationship between Yale and
New Haven.
The 2022 FOCUS on New Haven program boasted five
hundred and fifty participants, a size that is triple the typical
number for FOCUS. Students engaged in a wide variety of
projects, from cleaning up East Rock Park to creating STEM
kits for New Haven schoolchildren.
FIRST-YEARS IN SUPPORT OF NEW HAVEN
STUDENT CO-COORDINATOR SPOTLIGHT
First-Years in Support of New Haven (FiS-NH) is a
Dwight Hall program that seeks to connect first-year
Yale students to other passionate first-years, enabling
them to learn about and explore New Haven and make
mutually beneficial relationships with New Haven
leaders and community members.
Lisbette Acosta ’24 is a junior in Morse College
majoring in Psychology. As one of FiS-NH’s Co-
Coordinators, she co-creates a supportive, welcoming,
and exploratory space for first-year students to
sustainably engage with New Haven by hosting speaker
events, engaging in critical group discussions about
community support, and coordinating paid internships
with community partners in the spring.
“Building deep
trust with our
fellow New
Haven neighbors
for years on end
is a practice that
I treasure deeply. I’m incredibly
grateful to have met so many
extraordinary people through
our love of community and
mutual support.”

Co-Op After School
ADVANCE
Dwight Hall Socially Responsible Investment Fund
Co-Op After School (CAS) is a partnership between Dwight Hall and
Cooperative Arts and Humanities High School in downtown New Haven.
In its fourteenth year, CAS offers free and accessible after-school
programming to all Co-Op students.
Challenged to regroup at the onset of the pandemic, CAS shifted its 2021-22
curriculum to focus on support-based programming such as mutual aid,
technology-lending, and academic support.
Paul Bryant Hudson, the CAS Program Director, explained, “this year has
been a really challenging one for many reasons. And consistently, Co-Op
students, CAS students, staff, teachers, and administrators have shown up.”
In fall of 2022, CAS returned with a robust lineup of unique programs,
clubs, and events that support youth leadership development, creative
exploration, and the academic and socioemotional needs of Co-Op
students. CAS introduced new programs like “Wearable Art and
Entrepreneurship,” and students auditioned for “Hairspray,” this year’s
musical. Student participation continues to grow, with over two hundred
students currently enrolled in programming—the highest enrollment since
the start of the pandemic.
The Dwight Hall Socially Responsible Investment
Fund (DHSRI) is a group of undergraduates that
manages a portion of Dwight Hall’s endowment with a
socially responsible approach to investing that incorporates
environmental and social impact into investment
decisions. It was founded in 2008 with $50,000 in alumni
contributions.
Students in DHSRI can manage the investment portfolio,
participate in shareholder engagement, or join its newest
team —Community Investment (CI).
Five Years of Community Mental Health Fellows
Launched in 2018, the Community Mental Health Fellows (CMHF)
program provides field experience for Yale University undergraduates
with a passion for urban community mental health issues, growing the
capacity of the Connecticut Mental Health Center Foundation to
administer treatment for adults in mental health and addiction recovery in
New Haven. Currently, nineteen Dwight Hall CMH Fellows are gaining
real-world experience in the medical discipline.
2022 COMMUNITY MENTAL
HEALTH FELLOW SPOTLIGHT
Jocelyne Rondeau ’23, a 2022
Community Mental Health Fellow, is
a Research Track Fellow within the
Kaye Lab at the Connecticut Mental
Health Center (CMHC), where she
investigates the cellular and circuitlevel
mechanisms underlying
psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy
to treat PTSD.
Co-Op After School
provides free and
accessible after-school
programming to high
school students.
“I feel incredibly blessed by
the mentorship I have received
from my PI, supervisor, and
team members alike, as well as
the deeper sense of connection
that I have felt with the other
incredible fellows and the
CMHC at large.”
—Jocelyne Rondeau ’23
Community Investment builds upon Dwight Hall’s
broader mission of creating positive impact, utilizing
finance to address challenges in New Haven by helping
those who are already engaged in the community. In
2020, the Dwight Hall Investment Committee approved
a pilot program that is a literal interpretation of the team
name: CI would use $8,000 drawn from the annual return
on DHSRI’s assets under management to allocate two
unrestricted $4,000 grants to New Haven nonprofits.
Students on CI, led by team director Daevan Mangalmurti
’24, began the process by researching nonprofits in New
Haven, emphasizing grassroots organizations run by New
Haven locals for those in the community. Members pitched
the most promising organizations to fellow team members.
Following pitches, CI selected two recipients of the DHSRI
inaugural grant: Elena’s Light and New Lifestyles Women
Empowerment. Elena’s Light aims to build a supportive
community for refugee women and children in New Haven
by providing ESL classes, healthcare education, and a space
for building cross-cultural connections. Similarly, New
Lifestyles Women Empowerment helps women facing
addiction, homelessness, and the difficulties of reentering
society from prison through mentoring and workshops.
These organizations were selected for their transparency,
missions that directly benefit those in New Haven, and
relatively small size that made the grant more impactful.
Going forward, Community Investment plans to continue
and expand the grantmaking program, as well as maintain
and develop relationships with past grant recipients. For the
2022-23 year, DHSRI has recruited new members who are
beginning the research process for a new round of grants,
hoping to make an even greater impact across New Haven.
DHSRI students manage a
portfolio, engage shareholders,
and make socially responsible
investments in the community.

TESTIMONIALS
“The true impact of this grant
will reach farther than you
can imagine and cannot be
fully captured in its monetary
worth—you have not just
given generously but have
helped to transform the lives
of the refugees that Elena’s
Light serves.”
—Elena’s Light, Grantee
“We’re a small organization
with limited funding. Having
those expenses covered [by
the grant] was a relief to the
board and also freed us up to
focus on increasing our
capacity to reach more
women.”

Muslim Leadership Lab
The Muslim Leadership Lab at Dwight Hall was founded
in 2018 to grow civic leadership skills among Muslim
students at Yale and to catalyze new directions for Muslim
life on college campuses nationwide.
Moving online during the pandemic helped the Muslim
Leadership Lab (MLL) expand its participant base and
partnerships. Returning to in-person and virtual
programming in September 2022, MLL co-sponsored an
event with the Shia Racial Justice Coalition that explored the
state of racial justice in the United States in light of the legacy
of the martyrdom of Imam Hussein, an iconic social justice
story in the Islamic tradition. A few days later, MLL hosted a
roundtable with Lauren Schreiber, founder of Center DC, a
“third space” for spiritual and mental health.
MLL also convened the second annual Spirituality and Social
Justice Retreat with twenty-five Yale students participating in a
two-day retreat. To end the year, the Ivy Muslim Conference
was hosted at Yale in December, with MLL hosting the
marquee “coffeehouse conversation” that involved over two
hundred students from a dozen schools. A major collaboration
with Princeton’s Muslim Life Program is planned for 2023-
2024. Watch this space!
New Haven Civic Allyship Initiative
The New Haven Civic Allyship Initiative is elevating the
existing work of community organizers in New Haven and
beyond. The program confronts complex social challenges,
convening criminal justice advocates, grassroots activists,
currently and formerly incarcerated people, students, and
professors in equitable relationships through workshops,
trainings, and research.
In 2022, the Initiative ran numerous virtual and in-person
workshops. These included “Fathers in Education,” which
highlighted the engagement of fathers in their children’s
education, and “Can the Family Survive?” a look into social
worker Landon Osborn’s work supporting families of the
incarcerated in New Haven via the nonprofit Connecting
Through Literacy: Incarcerated Parents, Their Children, and
Caregivers. Highlights of the Fall 2022 semester were two
events featuring artist and activist Kenyatta Emmanuel, who
spoke on the importance of voting rights, particularly for
incarcerated individuals and their families.
The Muslim Leadership
Lab grows civic leadership
skills among Muslim
students and catalyzes

Yale Prison Education Initiative
Founded in 2016, the Yale Prison Education Initiative
(YPEI) has now offered Yale courses and programming to
students incarcerated in Connecticut prisons continuously
since 2018. In 2021, a partnership with the University of New
Haven allowed the program to begin to offer college degrees
to students in prison, and this year, YPEI expanded its
program to reach incarcerated women at the Federal
Correctional Institution in Danbury, Connecticut.
YPEI brings a liberal arts education to students in prison. Its
classes are taught by Yale and University of New Haven faculty
and aim to replicate the classes taught at those institutions.
Through a partnership with the University of New Haven,
made possible by a transformative grant from the Mellon
Foundation, students are matriculated in a UNH Associate of
Arts degree and graduates have the opportunity to enroll in a
Bachelor of Arts degree in Interdisciplinary Studies.
The impact of these classes extends far beyond the students
enrolled in the class. Founding Director Zelda Roland ’08, ’16
Ph.D. described how students will share what they have
learned in class with others in the facility, creating reading
groups, and transforming the culture of the prison.
Furthermore, students share their discoveries with friends
and family outside the facility.
The work of the Danbury program has only just begun. On
October 17, 2022, the Danbury site held orientation for its
selected students. In the fall, students enrolled in an
accelerated course in philosophy; in spring 2023, students are
enrolling in an introductory college writing course; Readings
in American Literature; and College Mathematics.

“[The student] said that
they’re looking forward to
doing college-level math
homework with their
daughter. If she can’t figure
something out, she’ll consult
with her, and they’re going
to support each other...that’s
just the beginning of some of
the good stories you’re going

Dwight Hall Commons
EMERGING PROJECTS
Doctors United for Ukraine
When the Russian invasion of Ukraine began, Yale doctors with
Ukrainian roots watched the events unfold in horror. Irina Esterlis
(Psychiatry), Andrey Zinchuk (Medicine), Alla Vash-Margita
(Obstetrics and Gynecology), and others were in touch with
colleagues in Ukraine. The Yale doctors learned that there were
critical gaps in medical supplies. In response, physicians decided to
raise funds to purchase equipment from various suppliers shipped
directly to hospitals in Ukraine.
Doctors and professionals at Yale and from the New Haven area
joined together to formalize fundraising operations. Looking to
learn about starting a nonprofit, they reached out to Peter Crumlish
’09 M.A.R., Executive Director & General Secretary of Dwight Hall.
Peter advised the physicians that a new nonprofit would be useful
yet would take time to establish. In the meantime, he offered
Dwight Hall to serve as the group’s fiscal sponsor.
The group incorporated as Doctors United for Ukraine (DU4U) and
signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Dwight Hall. To date,
DU4U has raised over $1 million. True to a grassroots effort, funding
came from families and friends, Yale faculty, interfaith vigils, cultural
festivals, and a New Haven Symphony Orchestra concert.
In a collaboration between DU4U and Odessa Maternity Hospital
#5, DU4U helped with a shortage of medication to stop preterm
labor. Doctors in the southern city of Odessa preserved high-risk
pregnancies including a set of triplets. DU4U also established a
“Healthy Hearts for the Vulnerable” program with Lviv’s Regional
Hospital. To date, the heart surgeons implanted thirty-eight heart
valves donated to DU4U by Edwards Lifesciences for patients with
terminal heart failure. DU4U also established Project “Truskavets”
to provide psycho-social treatment to over seven hundred internally
displaced women and children. These are just a few many examples
of DU4U’s impact, which continues to grow with each passing
month.

◦ produced networking
events for students and
community partners with
groups such as executive
MBA candidates from
Yale’s Global Executive

The experiences of students and New
Haven neighbors during the COVID-19
pandemic accentuated our collective need
for community. In 2022, Dwight Hall leaders
reflected on building an inclusive environment
and cultivating a sense of belonging in advance
of welcoming diverse audiences.
Now featuring comfortable and adaptable
furniture to support multiple room
configurations, technology to produce a rich
experience for hybrid meetings, and panels
capturing scenes that highlight community,
Dwight Hall’s historic Lovett Common Room
serves as a home base for the intentional practice
of equitable community engagement.
Dwight Hall Commons invites students to
consider the context of their service and justice
work; welcomes leaders from the extended New
Haven community to access campus resources;
convenes those who wish to learn from experts,
practitioners, and each other; and preserves
and perpetuates the collective wisdom and lived
experience of our communities.

CELEBRATING 69 YEARS OF THE ULYSSES S. GRANT FOUNDATION
Serving New Haven Youth Since 1953
The Ulysses S. Grant Foundation was founded by
Eugene Van Voorhis ’55, ’58 L.L.B. in 1953. Arriving at Yale in
1951, Eugene joined the Yale-Dixwell Interracial Group, a
Dwight Hall organization that brought together Yale students
and residents of the Dixwell neighborhood. There he
identified two middle school-aged African American students
and started tutoring them with a group of Yale students. The
group’s aim was getting the students admitted into elite
boarding schools at a time when Black applicants were
virtually unheard of. The program expanded and by 1953,
Eugene registered U.S. Grant as a formal nonprofit.
The next few decades were marked by change and adaptation.
The program expanded in numbers, girls and non-African
American students were admitted into the student body, and
the summer program was introduced, offering high-quality
academic classes to motivated middle school students. Over the
decades, Grant evolved to reflect the changing educational
landscape and increasing number of quality summer
opportunities for Yale and New Haven students.
Today, Grant runs a six-week academic enrichment summer
program for seventy-five New Haven public and parochial
school students. Yale undergraduate student leaders continue
to run the program and teach classes that they design.
At the onset of the pandemic, the Grant program was faced
with the choice of offering a virtual program or shutting
down for the summers of 2020 and 2021. The student
directors and board of directors determined it was necessary
to continue to offer learning opportunities. Despite the fact
that classes were on Zoom, the Grant team created a learning
environment that was hands-on, interactive, and driven by
student and teacher interests. Middle school students
explored music history and theory, memory, children’s media
and the culture, history, and science behind food.
Back at Dwight Hall for the summer of 2022, teachers
and students adapted to being in person. Teachers converted
Dwight Hall’s Lovett Common Room, Chapel, Library,
Samuel Priest Rose Social Justice Network Room, and
Education Network Room into classrooms. Old Campus
served as a playground. Students came from twenty schools
and chose between creating their own memoir, conducting
chemistry experiments through baking, acting in a comedic
play for the final showcase, or writing for the U.S. Grant
Times. The summer was enriching for all those involved,
setting the tone for the next few years as Grant continues to
make its home at Dwight Hall.

where she taught both creative writing and
environmental engineering classes over Zoom to
New Haven middle school students. As a Co-
Director, Chidima helped organize and lead U.S.
Grant’s first in-person summer since the onset of the
pandemic, serving more than sixty academically
motivated middle schoolers from over twenty New
Haven public and parochial schools.

“…Dwight Hall, more
than any other institution,
changed the direction of
my life and career.”
“It deepened my
understanding
of what a career
devoted to
service and
justice might
look like, and (I
hope) made me
more thoughtful
and humble in that work. It was
only natural that when I thought
about how the financial fruits of
my life’s labor might serve
others, I thought of Dwight Hall
and made a legacy provision in
my will.”

TASK FORCE ENGAGES ALUMNI IN MENTORSHIP & CAREER PANELS

Dwight Hall’s Alumni Mentorship &
Career Development Task Force helps
make Dwight Hall a hub of information,
mentorship, and networking for current
students and alumni interested in public
service, social justice, and related careers.
In December 2022, the task force
organized an “Exploring International
Opportunities in Public Service” panel
that was attended by twenty
undergraduates. Notably, two Dwight
Hall alumnae–Lisena DeSantis ’05 and
Michelle Rosenthal ’05—were featured as
panelists. While undergraduates, Lisena
and Michelle were both on the Student
Executive Committee, continued to
engage in public service-related careers
postgrad, and remain friends to this day.
In their own words, hear what it meant
to them to reconnect with current
undergraduates through this panel.
“As an undergraduate, Dwight Hall was a
space where I was able to connect with
the broader New Haven community . It
enriched my college experience beyond
measure, and inspired me to continue to
volunteer abroad after graduation. I can
truly say that my experience abroad
changed my life (both professionally and
personally), and I was thrilled to have the
chance to support current students
exploring that opportunity for themselves.”
—Lisena DeSantis ’05
“Volunteering with Dwight Hall was one of
the most meaningful and enduring parts of
my Yale education. It was such a special
experience to have a chance to connect
with current students and discuss the
benefits, challenges, and opportunities of
working and volunteering internationally.
Living abroad was eye-opening and
formative for me in so many ways and I’m
grateful to Yale and Dwight Hall for the
opportunities.”

IN MEMORIAM
Kathrine Adams Burdick
1945 - 2022
A humble leader who nurtured
students and encouraged
thoughtful reflection on service
and social justice, Kathrine died
in November 2022 following a
lengthy and courageous battle
with Progressive Supranuclear
Palsy.
Kathrine served as Dwight
Hall’s General Secretary and
Executive Director from 1999
-2008. She drew from her
extensive experiences—building
systems of child care in urban
centers, leading public and
private organizations including
the Connecticut Department of
Social Services Family Services
She inspired
students, Board, and
staff to apply vision
and dedication to
realize social change.
division, supporting relief work in Haiti, to name a few—to
guide the Hall through a period of dynamic growth. During
her term, Dwight Hall’s volunteer base and organizational
budget more than doubled, multiple Fellowship programs
were initiated, and campaigns for building renovations and
endowment growth were launched.
BOARD MEMBER SPOTLIGHT
Anika Singh Lemar ’01, Clinical Professor of Law at Yale Law School
Anika Singh Lemar ’01 spent most of her waking
hours at Dwight Hall when she was an
undergraduate. She served as Secretary of the
Yale Hunger and Homelessness Action Project,
Urban Fellow at Fellowship Place and the Hill
Development Corporation, and as Co-
Coordinator of Dwight Hall’s Student Executive
Committee. In those roles, she advocated for
increased experiential and service learning
opportunities for Yale undergraduates. Today,
as a member of the Yale Law School faculty,
Anika provides those kinds of opportunities to
graduate students at Yale.
Anika now teaches courses that permit
students—mostly law students and sometimes
also business,
architecture, public
health, divinity, and
environmental graduate
students—to learn while
working with and on
behalf of tenants,
homeowners, fair
housing advocates,
community development
financial institutions, nonprofit affordable
housing developers, and small businesses.
She received tenure in 2021 and is thrilled to
have the luxury of calling New Haven home for
many years to come.
She inspired students, Board, and staff to apply vision and
dedication to realize social change. Dwight Hall remembers
Kathrine fondly for her graceful and authentic leadership, her
warmth and compassion in mentoring student leaders, and
her commitment to building community.
