Dear Center Community,

On behalf of the Board of Directors, I’m thrilled to share some historic and exciting news with you. Dr. Carla Smith will be the new CEO of The Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual & Transgender Community Center. She will succeed Glennda Testone, who served as Executive Director for 14 extraordinary years. We are confident that Carla will build on Glennda’s legacy and are deeply grateful to Glennda for her remarkable leadership.   
 

This announcement is the result of a five-month-long national search (almost 200 applications were received!) by Axis Talent Partners that included members of the board and staff at every step of the process. All of those who committed so much time, care, and consideration throughout this transition have our heartfelt gratitude. 

Sincerely,
Rahul Tripathi
President, Board of Directors
The Center
