Honorary Advisory Board

We are humbled and grateful for our ‘Honorary Advisory Board’. These leaders not only serve as ambassadors for returners, each of them consistently lend their leadership and influence as an opportunity to inspire and shape the future in the lives and communities they serve. They also help us advance our mission of creating systemic pathways that facilitate the reentry of women back into the workforce.
