Melissa Interess, Executive Director

Melissa started her career in the fields of marketing and technology consulting. Very quickly she realized that helping companies make more money wasn’t the right path for her. Melissa then obtained her Masters degree in Social Work in 2005, with a commitment to helping people. She has been working in the field of aging services for the better part of the last 18 years. Melissa has extensive experience in community-based services and working with at-risk populations. Her areas of interest include mental health, racial and social equity, housing, aging in place, and caregiving. In her free time, Melissa enjoys working out, listening to podcasts, and watching her two active daughters play soccer.
