Dear John,

I am thrilled to announce that ARC has recently brought on three new Board Members to our ARC Board of Directors: Kristen Renee Ingram, Brad Slater, and Toni Michelle White. They are powerhouses in their respective fields, and bring a wealth of lived experience and knowledge to our Board. We are honored that they are bringing their expertise to our organization -- we will benefit tremendously from their leadership.

ARC’s work is more important than ever before. Despite the challenges we face, we continue to fight for a more just future and remain committed to ending mass incarceration. Our leadership team, staff, and formerly incarcerated Members are dedicated to transforming the criminal legal system and creating a system that is equitable for all people, no matter the color of your skin or the amount in your bank account. Like the rest of our Board, Kristen, Brad, and Toni uphold these same values. Read below for more on our new Board Members!

Kristen Renee Ingram

Kristen Renee Ingram is the award-winning CEO & Executive Producer at PLUS ONE society – a Black woman-owned event production and marketing agency specializing in social justice and racial equity servicing sports, entertainment and media industries.

Prior to launching PLUS ONE, Kristen was the Head of Affiliate Marketing for NFL Network where she oversaw strategic partnerships, creative campaigns and experiential events for all NFL calendar initiatives, including Super Bowl. Inspired by the power of sports and its ability to connect cultures and provoke progressive action, Kristen launched PLUS ONE in 2017 with the intent to directly uplift and amplify social justice movements that influence positive change within the culture. Today, she is one of the premier social justice campaign and event producers in the country.

In 2017, Kristen led the historic production of Imagine Justice with Common and J. Cole on the steps of the CA state Capitol in Sacramento. In 2018, she returned to Imagine Justice and led the production of the Hope & Redemption Prison Tour: a series of live concerts in various correctional facilities featuring Common and a special guest appearance by Talib Kweli. In 2019, she partnered with Good Films Impact to oversee production on all sports ([link removed]) and music ([link removed]) programs and events for Represent Justice – a social impact campaign that launched alongside Warner Bros.’ theatrical release of Just Mercy, starring Michael B. Jordan, Brie Larson and Jamie Foxx – inspired by the true story of Equal Justice Initiative founder and Executive Director, Bryan Stevenson.

In 2020, Kristen advanced her clients’ and partners’ shared goals for social impact in the midst of a global pandemic, racial uprisings and immeasurable injustices to influence one of the most successful policy reform years since the inception of PLUS ONE. Her accomplishments consist of effectuating major reform policies in CA and OH (e.g. Prop 17 ([link removed]) , Prop 20 ([link removed]) , AB 376 ([link removed]) , and SB 13 ([link removed]) ), the election of Los Angeles District Attorney (George Gascon) who announced sweeping Criminal Justice Policy Reform
([link removed]) and advancing aggressive Criminal Justice Reform Plans in WI ([link removed]) .

Kristen lives in Los Angeles with her 16-year old, Taryn.

Brad Slater

Brad Slater, an agent at WME in Beverly Hills, started his career after graduating from the University of Arizona in 1996. His first job upon graduating was in foreign distribution selling American made films to countries throughout the world. In 1998 he made the transition to the representation business and went to work at Michael Ovitz’ Artist Management Group (AMG) as an assistant to talent manager Rick Yorn.

After learning the business and working his way up, Mr. Slater was promoted and became a talent manager in August 2001. After managing various careers he made the transition to agent in 2003 at the William Morris Agency. After working as an agent for 7 years, the William Morris Agency merged with the renowned Endeavor Agency forming WME in 2009.

He is currently a Senior Talent Partner and has been an agent for close to 20 years. Mr. Slater represents the likes of Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, Forest Whitaker, Octavia Spencer, Henry Cavill, Ice Cube, Ben Affleck, Gina Rodriguez, Billy Bob Thornton, Eva Longoria, Jerry Ferrara, Shay Mitchell, Michael Strahan, Lebron James, Odell Beckham Jr, Ronda Rousey, and Ryan Garcia. Brad lives in Beverly Hills, California with his wife, Kara and their twin 9 year old boys, Brady and Jackson.

Toni Michelle White

Toni Michelle White, Co-Founder of LA Traveler Space LLC & House of PR Realty LLC, hasn’t always walked a straight line. By looking at her, no one would believe she was a 23-year fugitive from the efforts of law enforcement to imprison her away from her only daughter back when she was 19. Today, she is a licensed realtor, licensed state notary, & fingerprint technician. Freedom was the main ingredient. Being free to raise a female child with an absent father and deceased grandparents gave Toni the fighting spirit to rise from ashes. Her greatest accomplishment is her daughter who is a retired nuclear power electrician after service in the U.S. Navy.

Toni has always been someone that’s passionately committed to serving groups that are under-represented and under-resourced. Her desire to serve others came after the period in her life when she was homeless with her daughter on the streets of Los Angeles. Toni was introduced to great non-profit organizations such as Upward Bound house which housed her family and Chrysalis in Santa Monica, where she was able to redefine herself by reentering the workforce & licensure in fields that would produce a life career. Toni learned valuable skills through her academic studies at Southwest Community College & returned to Southwest as an A.R.C Construction Cohort Member.

Toni appreciates that there is more happiness in giving than in receiving, and feels that way with each client she works with as a Case Manager at WLCAC-Re-Entry Department in Watts, CA. Prior to that, she worked for Los Angeles County as a Supervisor with the homeless shelter, Home at Last CDC, where she worked on homeless outreach through “Project Room Key.” Toni’s story isn’t finished yet, she looks forward to the next chapter – being part of the ARC board where she can lead by example and be a good role model to encourage anyone running from the greatness within us all.
We are so pleased to have these three new leaders join the ARC team and are grateful for their commitment to reform the justice system. Together, we will work to ensure our communities are safe, healthy, and whole. As always, thank you for your continued partnership during this new and exciting era for ARC.

Sincerely,
Sam
