Current Board Members:
Cindy Bartz (Board Chair)
Cindy grew up in a close-knit community in San Antonio and earned a B.S. in Political Science from Texas A&M and an MSW from University of Texas at Austin. Cindy spent the first five years of her career with Big Brothers/Big Sisters in Houston and Northern Virginia before moving into the public sector as the Director of Community Development for the Housing Authority in Austin.

Fast-forward 15 years — with a 16 year-old son, 11 year-old daughter and 4-year-old labrador — Cindy and her family are thrilled to call Jackson Hole home. Since moving to Jackson, Cindy has happily returned to her social work roots, putting her grant writing and nonprofit management skills to use as an independent contractor with several local organizations.
