Kelly K. Malone, Executive Director

Kelly began her career with the SUW in 1992 as the Secretary-Bookkeeper and assumed the position of Director of Community Relations in 2000. Following the retirement of longtime Executive Director, Mr. Clare Houser, the Board of Directors appointed Kelly to the position of Executive Director in 2004. While Kelly’s first year as Executive Director proved to be a busy one, it also proved to be highly successful as the agency well surpassed its goal that year.
