Leadership Transition Update

Friends,

Most of you have already heard the news that our Executive Director, Mindy Binderman, is moving from her work at GEEARS to the national stage at the Low Income Investment Fund (LIIF). Today, April 3rd, is her last day, and we want to wish her all the best. We hope to announce a new Executive Director soon. 

In the interim, our amazing GEEARS team is led by our directors. Please contact: 

  • Lisa Dwyer, Director of Strategic Operations, for any financial and operational matters —  ldwyer@geears.org 
  • Hanah Goldberg, PhD, Director of Research and Policy, for anything involving policy, government relations, data, or research — hgoldberg@geears.org  
  • Meagan Jackson, Director of Communications, for any communications or media needs — mjackson@geears.org 
  • Shawnell Johnson, Director of PAACT, for anything regarding our work in the City of Atlanta — sjohnson@geears.org  

As we say a fond farewell to Mindy, we look forward to seeing how her new role helps impact the work we are doing for Georgia’s children and families. If you want to reach out to Mindy personally, you can contact her at mindybinderman@gmail.com

Thank you for your continued support,
