Bio:
Cassandra Moore is the Director of Admissions and Enrollment Development at Anne Arundel Community College in Maryland. She has worked at every level of college admissions, but her passion for first-generation college students led her to community colleges. She has been an active member of AACRAO, and currently serves on its Board of Directors as the Vice President of Access and Equity.
Understanding that lack of opportunity and access is a social justice issue, she has focused her efforts on improving access, equity and inclusion in higher education and in her community. She is a member of Anne Arundel Women Giving Together, a women’s giving circle that awards grants up to $20,000 to non-profits who improve the lives of women, children and families. She has served on the Anne Arundel County Partnership for Children, Youth and Families Disconnected Youth Workgroup, focused on 16-24 years old residents, who are not connected to school, family or work. Cassandra also serves on two Signature Program Integrated Community Stakeholder Teams (ICST) with business and political leaders focused on providing co-curricular workforce opportunities to high school students. She has served as a scholarship application reviewer for the Gates Millennium Scholars Foundation, and the United Negro College Fund STEM Scholars program. Her commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion has been recognized by her college and community.
She is the recipient of the Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Zeitgeist Award, Diversity Champion Award, YWCA Tribute to Women of Color Service to Youth Award, Minority Access, Inc. Role Model for Recruitment Award, and the Northern Anne Arundel County Chamber of Commerce Education in Excellence Award.
