Will and Emma have been with Heartland since 2024 and 2022 respectively, and have already made a tremendous amount of impact. As familiar and trusted leaders, they bring complementary expertise and a deep understanding of Heartland’s programs, people, and strategic priorities that is invaluable to preserving and advancing our mark on our communities.

For our rescued residents, staff, and the children and families we serve here at Heartland, this is genuinely the best scenario we could have asked for – two wonderful humans who fully embody the compassion, thoughtfulness, and care that we are known for to continue to move us forward.

Please join us in congratulating Will and Emma on this exciting step forward, this is just the start of many great things to come!

A very genuine thank you to Steve Suleski for filling the role of Interim Executive Director since the beginning of the year. His cheery demeanor, depth of knowledge, and mission focused guidance cannot be overstated. We wish him a delightful retirement and know that he will continue to be part of the Heartland story in the future.

To support the Co-Executive Directors, the Board has also approved a Director of Operations role that Heartland is currently hiring for. If you know of someone who may be interested in this position, please encourage them to apply! The job description can be found here: https://tinyurl.com/yb4r3zdm
