Ronicka’s passion for students who have experienced foster care has grown; however, it starts at home with her Godsons, who were once in the Michigan foster care system before being adopted by a family member. After receiving her first master’s degree, Ronicka also dedicated her time to developing and growing a local group home for teen girls, boys, and moms who were in foster care. She joined the Seita Scholars Program early in its development, and was instrumental in developing and creating the campus coach model, training thousands of professionals around the country since 2013. She was the first Senior Campus Coach for the program, developed the strategy for supervising staff in the area of troubleshooting student challenges and celebrating their successes; she is the program’s current director; she is a senior trainer for the Fostering Success Coaching Institute; and is an associate certified coach through the International Coach Federation. In addition to serving on the Cetera Board, Ronicka serves on the following board of directors in her community - Kalamazoo County Michigan Department of Health and Human Services; Ministry with Community; and Pretty Lake Camp. Ronicka is a member of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. where she dedicates time to projects that support and serve the community.
