For me, leadership is personal. It’s not just about making decisions from my desk. It’s about getting involved and being where it matters most. I take pride in being hands-on. I’ve learned about every aspect of our work, from collaborating with nonprofits to locating essential resources for our residents. I have worked with my team on maintenance and repair tasks. These tough experiences remind me why we do this: to improve the lives of families in our communities. Every repair we make, every system we improve, and every partnership we create helps turn neglected properties into safe and thriving spaces. We are not just building homes; we are creating opportunities and fostering a sense of dignity and pride for those living in them. Leadership involves action, and I’m proud to lead by example. I'm always available to chat if you’re interested in hearing more about our work and how you can contribute to its impact. #Leadership #AffordableHousing #CommunityImpact #HandsOn #LeadershipDevelopment #CommunityLeadership #HandsOnLeadership #AffordableHousingAdvocate #CommunityEngagement #SocialImpact #HousingSolutions #CommunityBuilding #Empowerment

The PIE team had a great time learning from many amazing colleagues who are building and supporting community schools across the nation at the National Community Schools and Family Engagement Conference (CSxFE24). We were honored to spend time with our partners at ACT Now https://lnkd.in/gKnc7HQ9, who have received not one, but TWO Full-Service Community Schools (FSCS) state scaling grants for Illinois. PIE is serving as the external evaluation partner for both grants. The conference opened up with an engaging workshop for FSCS grantees. One key discussion at this session centered around shared leadership. No matter what sector you work in, we found the following reflection question incredibly helpful to consider when building partnerships: What kind of partnership are you looking to create 1) completely shared leadership with equal voice and consensus; 2) advising to get feedback that informs decisions; or 3) solo decision-making? Each type of partnership has its place, and it's important to be transparent at all times.

Leadership isn’t just about having a title—it’s about taking action, advocating for others, and continuously striving for the success of your community. Whether through my role as an executive board member of the Huntington County Humane Society, serving on the Huntington City Plan Commission, or leading efforts within Pathfinder, I aim to foster growth and inclusion in every space I occupy. #Leadership #CommunityInvolvement #NonprofitLeadership #Pathfinder
