Children & Youth Program Staff

My name is Evangeline Rioux and I have recently started the position of Children and Youth Program Administrator for the Meeting! I graduated from Grinnell College in 2022 with a degree in Political Science, French and Global Development Studies, and moved to Madison about a year ago. I am a lifelong competitive swimmer and have been a lifeguard and swim coach for many years. I was born and raised Quaker and grew up in Meetings all over the country, most recently Durham Friends Meeting in North Carolina, where I worked for their First Day School as well. Quaker community and values are integral to my identity and the way I lead my life, and I cannot emphasize enough the positive impact attending First Day School had on me as a child. I am honored to have the opportunity to become more involved in the already vibrant First Day Program that Madison Meeting offers, and I look forward to working closely with each and every family! Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or would like to get more involved! childprog@madisonfriends.org
