Meet Our Team

  • Founder

    Third Parent Family and Youth Services was birthed from my personal experience. My passion for community connectedness inspired me to pursue college and become certified in Community Health Work. It is through this work that my team and I are able to provide a variety of readily available resources. These resources range from job preparedness, case management, mentorship, driver license obtainment and much more. My goal as we grow as an organization is to be the resource hub I didn't have growing up.

Lead Volunteers

  • Riley is current serving as our Lead Volunteer and has been involved with Third Parent Family since

    2020. She brings with her a degree in Women and Gender Studies, which influences her passion to

    support the San Francisco community to navigate resources. Particularly, she is driven to support the

    LGBT community, as well as those who have experienced domestic violence. Riley brings this desire for

    service, and leads our volunteers to ensure their service and engagement is a positive experience. Her

    experience in hospitality is a huge asset to both our volunteers, as well as our clients.

  • Todd discovered our organization by chance as we were setting up for our Saturday food pantry. He and

    his family have been involved since 2020, pitching in with the food pantry delivering and picking up

    goods. Todd believes strongly in being a catalyst for change and contributing to the betterment of the

    San Francisco community. Third Parent Family strongly aligns with his values to see an improvement in

    his home, and wishes to inspire others in the tech industry on ways in which to participate in this

    movement. He is passionate about helping to provide a structure and operationally ensure that our

    organization is able to be sustainable and continue to reach the needs of the community for the long

    run. He brings to us vast experience in corporate leadership and program development.

  • Rachel brings to us many experiences working with various food pantries, and has been volunteering

    with us since 2021, inspired by our grassroots response to need during the COVID-19 pandemic. She is

    inspired by our Third Parent Family’s unique connection to the community, and our willingness to

    personally care for our clients on a case-by-case basis. She brings to us a background and passion for

    non-profit management that is catered with a direct connection and awareness of the needs of the

    community. She is assisting to establish and organize our organization by providing measurable data of

    our success, while ensuring that we continue to uphold our mission. Her experience working with non-

    profits and in the environmental field are of great value to Third Parent Family.
