Experience
Executive Director
Oct 2018 — Present · Lewiston, ME, US
As Executive Director of the YWCA, l lead an organization with the urgent mission to eliminate racism and empower women. I oversee the only fully accessible aquatics program in the Lewiston/ Auburn area, including a thriving single-gender swim class designed to be culturally responsive to women’s needs for privacy and safety. I also manage the Priscilla and Dolard Gendron Early Learning Center, which accommodates Central Maine’s need for affordable childcare and engages the region’s continually expanding diversity through its curriculum and daily practices.Founded in 1878 as a service and housing provider for French-Canadian immigrant women working in Lewiston’s textile mills, the YWCA of Central Maine continues to work toward equity for all in the Central Maine area. Through the provision of quality and culturally responsive health and wellness, recreation, and childcare resources for women and working families and anti-racist and anti-sexist educational programming and advocacy, the YWCA ultimately strives toward gender, racial, and social justice for all.
