PARSIPPANY, NJ (October 28, 2019) – Lincoln Park resident and SCG Advertising + Public Relations Executive Vice President Mike Cherenson has joined the One To World board of directors, on which he will support the organization’s ongoing mission of bolstering connections between New York-area communities and international students, including Fulbright scholars.
One To World’s core activities include enrichment programs for international students, global education for area schools, and development and peer support for international educators. These are designed to provide a unique opportunity for U.S. residents and international students to interact and engage, in hopes of creating solid, international relationships.
“It’s essential to bridge societal barriers, so students can embrace diversity and create connections, regardless of their backgrounds,” Cherenson explains. “I’m honored to have been selected for this role, and I’m eager to support One To World’s mission of intercultural understanding.”
As executive vice president with more than three decades of industry experience, Cherenson oversees the public relations activities for SCG’s broad range of clients. The 2009 chair and CEO of the Public Relations Society of America (PRSA), Cherenson is a graduate of Ithaca College and holds an advanced certification from the Graduate School of Political Management at George Washington University. He currently is a member of PRSA’s Educational Affairs Committee and serves as a site team member for the group’s CEPR Certification program. He is also a site team member for the Accrediting Council on Education in Journalism and Mass Communications (ACEJMC), sitting on the organization’s Accreditation Committee.
The author of multiple studies focused on reputation, Cherenson is an alumni of The Joint Civilian Orientation Conference (JCOC), the oldest and most prestigious public liaison program in the Department of Defense, and the only outreach program sponsored by the Secretary of Defense.
