Most recently, Jill has been the Valley Alliance Campaign co-chair. Other past leadership roles have included Valley Alliance Women’s Department president and Women’s Campaign Chair. She continues
her work for the Federation as a board member, inspired by the powerful leaders with whom she works on a daily basis and by the concept that she is helping to make a difference for others at home and abroad.
