Leadership Transition

December 16, 2009

The past several months have been a time of transition for our organization. After much consideration, NCCD’s fifth president in 103 years, Barry Krisberg, has moved into semi-retirement, leaving behind a solid agency dedicated to its values and mission and in good fiscal standing, with an energetic and committed staff and board. During his tenure as leader for more than 25 years, Barry brought the organization safely through good times and tough times alike with a strong vision. In many ways, Barry and NCCD have been inseparable.
