Kim Bylancik
Avenue A Coordinator
Greetings! My name is Kim, and I joined the Grapevine in 2023. I work alongside Jacqueline as the Avenue A Coordinator, helping to expand our offerings to our amazing and diverse community of teens.
Committed to youth development, I previously was the 4-H program manager for Cheshire County/UNH Cooperative Extension, mentored AmeriCorps members as an Impact Manager in Manchester’s schools through City Year New Hampshire, developed and directed before and afterschool programming for Harrisville and Marlborough, and have spent innumerable sunny days and starry nights leading teens in the backcountry of the Northeast and beyond.
I moved to New Hampshire to pursue my master’s in Environmental Education from Antioch New England, and immediately discovered that the Monadnock Region is my home. The Grapevine is quickly becoming an extension of that home, and nothing brings me more joy than watching our teens thrive as they connect with each other, our amazing volunteers, and their community.
When not at Avenue A I can be found jumping into freezing water, ignoring mundane chores, or coaching the fantastic Cheshire Cats Jump Rope team in Keene.
