We are so grateful to have had the opportunity to bring eight YSEALI members into Cleveland and connect them to government offices around the city during their time here. These international professionals both learned a lot and passed on their knowledge to others. Of course, the cohort explored Cleveland not only as workers, but tourists; they attended a Cavs game, the Saint Patrick's Day Parade, a Cleveland Orchestra performance, and so much more! Thank you, @Ideastream for featuring such a wonderful program that we are thankful to host here at Global Cleveland.
