Anna McGovern

Afterschool Program Specialist

Originating from Western Massachusetts, Anna received her B.A. in Political Science and Chinese from the College of the Holy Cross in Worcester, MA. Post-grad, she found herself falling in love working in education spent the next several years working with youth in a variety of capacities ranging from a teacher, afterschool provider, camp counselor and a coach. iIn 2014, the military relocated her family to Alaska where she served as an AmeriCorps VISTA . As with many Alaskan transplants, the one year plan quickly turned into a 7+ year as she fell in love with Alaska and nonprofit work.

In her free time she likes to try and tame her three and one year old boys, be outdoors, staying active, reading and binging true crime podcasts. Anna is excited to be working with the dedicated and passionate youth workers of Alaska and is excited to be apart of the Alaska Afterschool Network team!
