It is with a mix of gratitude and sadness that we share the departure of our President & CEO, Jaymes Black. Jaymes is taking on a new role with one of our valued movement partners, The Trevor Project. This decision was not made lightly and has been a challenging one for Jaymes, who has shown unwavering dedication and passion for our mission throughout their tenure. Longtime Board Co-Chair, Alexis Kantor, will step in as Interim President & CEO while a search for our new President & CEO begins. https://familyequality.org/press-releases/family-equality-announces-president-and-ceo-transition/
