Macuik Receives NCLC Award; Recognized in People
The National Child Labor Committee (NCLC) awarded alumna Stacy Schumaker Maciuk (’05) its prestigious Lewis Hine Award in January. Maciuk, an advocate for foster care children, was honored for her work with local and state agencies to bring awareness to the special needs and challenges of foster care children. Maciuk became a foster care child at 2 and spent 17 years in the system, attending 10 different elementary and secondary schools before graduating and attending Belmont, where she graduated with a degree in social work and gave the commencement address at her graduation. Maciuk completed graduate school and now works in the Offices of Former Vice President Al Gore and Mrs. Tipper Gore. Maciuk was profiled in People magazine in June for her work with children in the foster care system and her successes while a student at Belmont. Click here to read the article.
