Beryl Johnson was first introduced to CalSAC in 1986 through state conferences hosted by the organization. At the time, Beryl was working as a program administrator of an afterschool program within a private, nonprofit organization in Walnut Creek, California. Beryl and that organization became affiliated with CalSAC through their membership opportunities and state conferences throughout the years. Beryl shares the following about her overall experiences with CalSAC:

“CalSAC has been the only organization in the state of California - the first organization in the state of California - that has provided a support system for people like myself to offer and extend professional development to a lot of our staff and just people in general working with young people. CalSAC has really provided that system of support to be able to afford professional development, community connections around developing the field but also providing people with the opportunities to develop themselves, to function and to practice in the field."
