Meet Cathy Ames

We are kicking off our 50th anniversary interview series by celebrating our longest serving staff member, the amazing Cathy Ames!

Cathy started at the Camden campus of Wayfinder in 2000, when it was still known as The Community School. She began as a residential program tutor and over the years she has bonded with hundreds of students as their culinary instructor, English tutor, overnight counselor, and Passages teacher. Chef-poet-mom-artist-teacher extraordinaire, Cathy is a beloved member of the Wayfinder family. And did we mention she manages the Wayfinder food pantry as well? We simply can't imagine Wayfinder without her.
