The Alternatives to Marriage Project (AtMP) is thrilled to announce
that Lisa-Nicolle (Nicky) Grist has begun work as AtMP's new executive
director. Nicky comes to AtMP with extensive experience managing and
growing non-profit organizations. For the past eight years, she served
as the executive director of Neighbors Helping Neighbors, a Brooklyn,
New York-based housing counseling organization. Like AtMP, Neighbors
Helping Neighbors hired Nicky to take the reins from the organization's
founder, and during her tenure she more than doubled the budget to over
$600,000, grew the organization to 10 full-time staff people plus
consultants and volunteers, greatly diversified its financial support,
and strengthened its board of directors. Nicky is off to a running
start for AtMP: in her first three months she relocated AtMP's office,
wrote commentary on legislation and current events, mobilized AtMP
supporters to take action against local discrimination, and convened
successful fundraising events in New York and the Bay Area. Learn more about AtMP's new executive director.
