That is the case now.  Groundswell’s Executive Director (ED), Elizabeth Gabriel, has stepped away from her role after many years at the helm, and so the Board of Directors is tasked with finding a new ED who will embody our history, our current practices, values, and principles, and is ready to “hit the ground running” as we scale up our equity work. We’ll be growing into our words and values.
