Catholic Youth Organization Continues To Provide Safe Spaces For Sports
Kimberly Williams has been with the Maryville Catholic Youth Organization (CYO) since 1987. She is the program coordinator. In grade school, she was part of the sports programs that were part of the Maryville Catholic Youth Organization. When she graduated from University of Illinois, her mentor asked if she would be interested in working at CYO. It was her dream job. She met some of her best friends through CYO sports, doing track and field or cheerleading.
