Elise Chesson currently serves as the Chief Advancement Officer for YWCA Tri-County Area. She oversees the growing non-profit’s government, foundation, and corporate grant-making, fund development, communications, events and helps facilitate its practices and policies for equity, inclusion, and justice.
Ms. Chesson most recently served as executive director at a local chapter of a leading national non-profit that addresses family and youth homelessness. She holds degrees in cultural anthropology, international relations, and peace and conflict studies, as well as a certificate in non-profit management.
“Championing for social and racial justice is not always popular but always needed. For those who take on the challenge it is rewarding,” Chesson says. The YWCA mission “is something I have been passionate about my whole life. I finally feel like I am in the right place at the right time, where the quest for equity is celebrated. I am truly excited to see all we can do and look forward to working with the community to create meaningful change.”
