Questa Education Foundation is proudly growing their team and excited to continue providing dedicated scholar support to over 400 scholars each year, welcoming Raven Morton to their team as Assistant Director for Scholar Success.
As Questa programs and partnerships continue to grow, this role will provide additional support to help Questa scholars succeed in their continued education. Raven will work closely with northeast Indiana community partners to develop programs encouraging students’ education attainment.
Specifically, Raven will work with all Parkview Opportunity Scholars providing one-on-one scholar support starting with the application process and continuing through their college journey. The Parkview Opportunity Scholars program funds graduating seniors from Fort Wayne Community Schools who intend to complete a two-year program at Ivy Tech Community College and work at Parkview Health upon graduation.
“I plan on supporting students by meeting them where they are. Not only by sharing with students the wonderful opportunities we have here at Questa, but also supporting them throughout this critical decision-making period they are navigating,” said Raven Morton. “I believe the more collaborative we are, the better equipped our students will be, with the knowledge of resources available to them to achieve their dreams.”
Raven has a passion for serving students and brings significant expertise to this role, with previous experience as a Community Partner Coordinator with Parkview Health, JAG Specialist at New Haven High School, and several case management roles. Raven is a dedicated life-long learner who holds two master’s degrees specializing in organizational leadership and education and mental health counseling. She previously served as a Disaster Services Specialist with the American Red Cross, is on the board for Young Professionals of Fort Wayne Urban League, and was recognized in 2021 by Greater Fort Wayne Business Weekly as a “Future Forty Under 40” winner.
Questa is also renovating their office space to expand with the new staff addition and to welcome more student and community visitors. Their updated office space at 6502 Constitution Drive in Fort Wayne will feature a larger conference room to invite larger visitor groups to stop in and learn more about Questa programs and partnerships.
