Joseph Shepard took a difficult childhood to change the trajectory of his life. Born into a military family, Shepard recalls sleeping in a car, living in homeless shelters, and struggling to maintain a stable lifestyle. Those experiences, coupled with other hardships, help shape his passion to tackle critical challenges that hinder young people from achieving their American dream.
As a first-generation college graduate, Shepard holds a Bachelor’s degree in Criminal Justice, Master’s degree in Public Administration with a focus on nonprofit management and is currently working on his Doctoral Degree in Educational Leadership at Wichita State University. Shepard is a community mobilizer, champion for youth and young professionals as well a conversational catalyst for equity and inclusion.
When not working for Lead For America, Joseph spends time serving in the community through various non-profit organizations.
