welcoming Nina Selvaggio to team family equality!
David on Aug 8th 2007
Thanks to our unprecedented growth, we’ve created a new position on our staff; we’re thrilled to welcome Nina Selvaggio as our Director of Policy & Program.
Nina is an advocate who has deep experience with community organizing, professional development, operations management and strategic leadership; over the past ten years, she has built coalitions and worked with communities around issues of education and social justice.
After earning a degree in Political Science and Women’s Studies from the University of Illinois-Urbana, Nina began her career as a Field Organizer for the Feminist Majority Foundation and has served in a number of similar campaign and community organizing roles since. She ascended to the Executive Director position at SpeakOut in Boston, a role that she held for over three years before moving on to direct the Youth Violence Prevention Coalition at GLSEN Boston. She also worked in the Massachusetts State House for State Treasurer Timothy Cahill and for the national organization Citizen Schools. Nina’s dedication to social responsibility and activism extends into her personal time, as well; she has served the National Organization for Women in several roles, including the President and Political Action Committee Chair of Massachusetts and on the National Board representing the Northeast region.
