meet the board

Betty is a wife of 43 years, a mother of four and a retired LPN with fourteen years of professional experience and relationship building skills.  She is compassionate, with exemplary communication skills.  She currently enjoys teaching Pre-K to ages 2 years-5 year old children.  Her most recent passion is in advocacy where our justice system needs reform.  Betty has developed a system of communication with those incarcerated, extending her empathy and financial help to them and to their families during difficult times.

After the incarceration of her son, she knew she had to learn to be more knowledgeable about our current justice system.  She was disappointed and overwhelmed with what she found so she began reaching out, only to find there was a lack of resources for those individuals who incur a charge such as her son’s.  After three years of research and writing letters to elected representatives and leaders, she was blessed to find UV4SOR.  Betty has been the lead for the No More Silence story project and collaborates with the board to work for better laws to promote healing, human rights, and second chances.
