Leadership

Board of Directors

Voices for Children is fortunate to have the dedication of an involved and compassionate Board of Directors, 100% of whom support VFC with generous contributions. This group of community and business leaders is responsible for financial oversight, goal setting, policy development, and fundraising. Voices for Children board members meet regularly to review programs and make policy decisions, and dedicate additional time to attend Voices for Children outreach and fundraising events and CASA graduation celebrations.

We are grateful to these community leaders for their efforts on behalf of children in need.
