With a robust background in social services and nonprofit administration, Reggie has transformed her vision into reality since founding the organization in 1999, following the unfortunate closure of a local nonprofit that provided essential childcare support. Under her leadership, FOR THE CHILDREN INC. has become a beacon of hope, offering comprehensive programs that address the multifaceted needs of families, particularly in the realms of child welfare, education, and community outreach.
Reggie's expertise in grant writing and budget development has been instrumental in securing vital funding for key projects that empower vulnerable populations. Her deep understanding of divorce and probate cases informs her advocacy work, allowing her to navigate complex family dynamics and ensure that children’s best interests remain at the forefront. Through strategic partnerships and innovative fundraising initiatives, Reggie has successfully expanded the organization’s reach, fostering a collaborative environment that engages community stakeholders and enhances service delivery.
In addition to her operational role, Reggie is a passionate spokeswoman for children's rights, frequently participating in public relations campaigns and community events to raise awareness about the challenges faced by families in crisis. Her commitment to leadership development and conflict resolution has not only strengthened her team but has also cultivated a culture of empathy and resilience within the organization. As FOR THE CHILDREN INC. continues to grow, Reggie remains steadfast in her mission to advocate for children and families, ensuring that every child has the opportunity to thrive in a supportive and nurturing environment.
