Sally Yee's User Info

Having spent most of my life working in the nonprofit sector and my experience in organizational development has really helped me with my work as a program officer.  I’ve worked in the areas of child abuse prevention, women’s health, community organizing, and public education.  Those experiences included work as an advocate, as a statistician and director of medical records, as a director of communications, as an administrative director, as a dismantling racism and organizational development trainer, and as a program director on an initiative to eliminate the achievement gap.  I was a founding member of an Asian-Pacific Islander organization and established a Saturday School program for a northeast Portland neighborhood where I taught reading and math to at risk third graders. 

I have a blended family with four children and my partner.  The kids are all young adults now.  I enjoy food, both cooking it for others and most importantly eating it!
