Dorothy Payne

Senior Director of Programs & Impact

Why do you do what you do?

I have a personal passion for improving the lives of people in communities and believe massively in the power of local individuals to enact positive change. I have over fifteen-years-experience working with community organizations locally and at a state level, working with vulnerable, minority, and veteran groups on the issues they face.  

As a Senior Director of Programs & Impact,

It has been my mission to provide proactive people with the equity, tools, coaching, and support they need to make the changes we need to see on a local, state and federal level.

When I’m not at CW, 

you might find me traveling, spending time with my family, sporting events, swimming, surfing and baking!
