BOARD OF TRUSTEES

The Board of Trustees is a group of community champions. These individuals provide encouragement, governance, and strategic fundraising support to help build and strengthen Stonewall’s programs for the community. Their passion and dedication allow us to grow our impact—so we can better serve our community with the programs, connection, and access to services people need.

With diverse backgrounds of experience—personally and professionally—these leaders collaborate with Stonewall staff to evaluate, assess, and plan for the future of the organization.
