Steve Cambron is a program administrator for the Purple Star Program in Kentucky. On the Friday episode before Memorial Day, we discuss the importance of supporting military-connected children in their diverse communities across the state. Son of a Korean war veteran, Cambron was raised in a Louisville neighborhood along the Ohio River called Rubbertown. After high school, he spent over 10 years in France before completing a master’s degree at the University of Louisville. While working at the Department for Behavioral Health, Developmental and Intellectual Disabilities, he became involved in addressing the needs of military-connected youth through a federal grant and launched Kentucky's Purple Star Program in 2021. The program has grown to include 42 schools in 13 counties across the state. Memorial Day is a time to reflect on the American patriots who made the ultimate sacrifice while protecting and defending our country. Please keep our soldiers and their families in mind this weekend.
