ABOUT LAUREN STEPHENS

As an experienced non-profit Director, my leadership is anchored in over a decade of dedicated service to those in need. The positions I’ve held have demanded an astute, collaborative project manager, an ability to create compelling presentations, and be proactive within the advocacy industry. I have led teams whose specific focus was on delivering comprehensive support through homeless services, community assistance, and rehabilitation programs.It is my specific focus to strive for systemic change, to assist in the creation and promotion of environments where dignity and upward mobility are within everyone\'s reach. Utilizing my ability to connect powerful narratives with compelling data has afforded me the opportunity to share stories otherwise unknown to others. To take part in the creation of equity, to shine light on the causes of inequality and poverty within the Greenville community is a challenging, yet powerful opportunity• one that I am proud to dedicate myself to today and tomorrow.
