  Mr. RADANOVICH. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize Carolyn Golden 
for receiving the Portraits of Success Award. This award pays tribute

work as a Deputy Probation Officer. From 1978 to 1991 she served as a 
Campus Probation Officer, a Placement Officer, and a Superior Court

for the Fresno County Probation Department. She also serves as the 
Project Coordinator of the Victim/Witness Program in Fresno County.
  Her involvement with volunteer and professional organizations 
include: KVPT, Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Black Catholic United, 
N.A.A.C.P., YWCA Marjoree Mason Center, Big Brother/Big Sister, Central

Criminal Justice Association, Black Peace Officer's Association, 
California Victim Witness Coordinating Council, AD HOC Committee 
Member, Domestic Violence Round Table, California Probation & Parole

  Her accomplishments have earned her a Portraits of Success Award,

improving the lives of the people in the community. I urge my 
colleagues to join me in wishing Carolyn Golden many more years of 
continued success.
