[HTML1] Sarah Craven is the Chief of the Washington Office of the United Nations Population Fund. The United Nations Population Fund is an international development agency that promotes the right of every woman, every man and child to enjoy a life of health and equal opportunity. It supports policies to reduce poverty and to ensure that every pregnancy is wanted, every birth is safe, every young person is free of HIV, and every girl and woman is treated with dignity and respect.

In her current role as Chief of the United Nations Population Fund’s Washington DC office, Ms. Craven carries out the organization’s mission to improve and save women’s lives. While her day-to-day work is often fraught with political landmines, Sarah says, “The reality of women’s lives keeps me going.” Wow! what a statement!

And the big news is: that Sarah Craven along with Congresswoman Barbara Lee, and Tracy Henke of Thomas Advisors will be honored at PLENS’ 2011 Mentor Awards in Washington on Thursday, February 24th! Interviewer Al Cole recently had Pamela O-Leary, Executive Director of PLEN on his show People of Distinction, and has been invited to attend the Mentor Awards as well! And really looking forward to it!

About Al Cole

Al Cole, “Mr. Romance,” has lived some life, and has paid some dues. Al, an African-American man(don’t let the blue eyes fool ya!), is the product of a very loving, very special, romantic mother and father. From the earliest age Al related to that generous, loving, romantic spirit that was nurtured in him.

Al has also seen oppression. Oppression can sometimes breed sensitivity and empathy. This aspect of living has caused Al to relate to women even more sensitively and empathetically. A sensitivity and empathy that Al calls “Romance.” Creativity rounds out the character. Al is a born and professional entertainer. Through Al’s singing and songwriting, his CBS Radio broadcasting, and through the depth of his voice, Al has learned many ways to deliver his “Romance” message—seriously, comically, sensually and spiritually. He has carried the Romantic word out to women…and to men too. And in the carrying of that message, Al has found that women and men from all backgrounds have often asked for his advice and guidance concerning their familial and romantic relationships.

Al has been particularly blessed to have women confide some of their deepest personal and relationship secrets to him. These “secrets” coupled with his own experiences and intuitions have combined in his offering both women and men some of the most powerful, enlightening, and mind-challenging guidance that they say they have ever received.

Al has been told over and over again by his fans, fans who affectionately call themselves “Al Cole-holics”, that his reflections, as well as his romantic words, could fill a book. The reflections, the romance, and the “secrets” have now been revealed in Al’s new book Romance for Women…& For All Mankind!

Al is also the Host of Al Cole: People of Distinction on WomensRadio. Al Cole: PEOPLE Of DISTINCTION is a unique show giving distinctive public figures the chance to talk not only about their great public accomplishments, but also notable aspects of themselves as individuals...what motivates them to create the things they do, their special goals and interests, their insights into life itself!
