SENATOR BRENT RICHARDS C V: 1949 to 1952 The morning after Brent Richards was elected Utah State Senator, he called CV because "that was the closest I could come to calling home." During his term of office, he sponsored important legislation, including an innovative bill to help the deaf community. Senator Richards holds a BS Degree in Philosophy from the University of Utah. He is married and has six children and 16 grandchildren.

Through the course of our history, more than 80,000 children have had a chance to rebuild their lives at CV.

CV is very proud of our strong connection to our Alumni. We keep in contact with a great many of them, and share their stories and pictures in our Alumni Gallery, which is in Wetmore Hall on our Dobbs Ferry campus. Alumni, their families and current and former CV staff gather annually at our Alumni Picnic. Several alumni are members of their own committee, Alumni Committed to Teen Success (ACTS), a volunteer organization which provides scholarships and mentoring to current CV residents.
