Hi! My name is Ashlee Salinetro- mother, wife, and community development professional with over a decade of experience in social services and business consulting. I have a passion for building communities across the world to help them address some of the toughest problems we face in today’s society.
My social service journey actually began by accident back in 2008. I was tired of working in retail and was looking for something different. In my job search, I came across a position at a local day center for adults and children with developmental disabilities. I really didn’t know what to expect, but knew that it had to be better than retail.
This experience opened my eyes to the world of social service and made me realize that not only did I want to follow this as my career path, but also make it my life’s mission to serve those in need!
I gained as much knowledge and experience as I could, including obtaining my Bachelors degree in Criminal Justice and my Masters degree in Human Resource Development, Organizational Development, and have had the opportunity to work in many different capacities in the nonprofit and government sectors, as well as professional business and software consulting.
Areas of experience:
Government Social Service Programs
Community Action Agency Planning
Homelessness/Homeless Prevention
Justice Diversion (Youth)
Housing Advocacy
Veteran Assistance
Employment Assistance
Child Welfare
Mental Health/Suicide Prevention
Youth Development
LGBTQ Outreach & Advocacy
I am always up for a challenge… whether that be through program development, strategic planning, or system design… I am always happy to help.
