Christina's Role at Finally Family Homes
As Founder, Christina led the way in developing the initial vision, strategy, policies, and programming for Finally Family Homes.
As Executive Director, Christina is responsible for managing the day-to-day duties of Finally Family Homes, executing these programs and initiatives under the guidance of the board.
Christina has run the Life Launch program since its inception, bringing in a variety of gifted speakers to share their wisdom and expertise with the youth we serve. During the pandemic, she wore the hat of a delivery driver – bringing gifts, thanksgiving dinners, and birthday treats to youth who have not been able to meet on campus during this time.
