You may know me from my work in the Church Staff Finances (Benefit Plans and Services) group at the UUA. Well, I’m still equipping congregations as employers, but now through a position on the Congregational Life team.

I’m delighted to introduce you to our new Growing Administrative Capacity pages in LeaderLab. Check out this 3-minute introductory video (YouTube)! And if you’re attending General Assembly, look for the Grow Administrative Capacity prerecorded workshop in the Whova app.

Also at GA, I’d love to have you join me for a 3-hour online cohort about Staffing Sustainably and Faithfully.

Please browse our reorganized and refreshed Congregations as Employers pages, and feel free to contact me (email).
