Recently, Jill expanded her role with the Chapman Foundation as Facilitator Development and Systems Leader where she will continue to help facilitators and learners “strengthen relationships, align teams, and build stronger communities.” Prior to working with the Chapman Foundation, Jill spent more than 15 years raising money for various non-profit organizations that provided research, experiences, and education for the people those organizations served.
