Our Staff!
For the past 15+ years, TASC has been led by Executive Director, Casey Brophy and Program Director, Marino Iandolo. Our staff is composed of TASC Counselors who provide an environment where the children feel safe, secure and are encouraged to grow socially and emotionally. The staff is also responsible for developing and implementing appropriate social and recreational activities suited to meet the needs of different age groups.
Many of our TASC counselors and volunteers are former TASC students, Tuckahoe Alumni and even current Tuckahoe High School students. Counselors have a passion for working with children, and enjoy building relationships in the TASC FAMILY community. Our counselors are also made up of many college students who are working towards their degrees in education who also work as aides and substitute teachers at the William E. Cottle School.
