The Special Education Foundation (SEF) is pleased to welcome Dawn Albright of Enterprise Bank & Trust to our Board of Directors. Dawn joins the Foundation with a passion for creating inclusive opportunities for students and families, along with a wealth of experience in strategic planning, project management, and community engagement.

As a Senior Marketing Program Analyst at Enterprise Bank & Trust, Dawn is a driven advocate for expanding resources for individuals with diverse learning needs and empowering local youth and families. She brings extensive expertise in analysis and project management and is an active member of Enterprise Bank & Trust's Women's Leadership Committee.

Dawn earned her Bachelor of Arts in Organizational Studies from Saint Louis University and is deeply committed to professional mentorship and advancing educational opportunities. Outside of her professional and volunteer commitments, she enjoys spending time with her husband, Steve, and with family and friends. Her interests include pilates, exploring new culinary experiences, wine pairings, and music.

“We are excited to welcome Dawn to our Board of Directors,” said Todd Streff, Chairman of the Board. “Dawn’s leadership, professional expertise, and passion for helping students succeed make her an exceptional addition to the Foundation. We look forward to the insight and perspective she will bring as we continue to advance our mission.”

As SEF begins a new fiscal year, the Foundation also recognizes several leadership transitions within its Board of Directors. Todd Streff will serve as Chair of the Board, with Dr. Julia Burke and Mike Corry serving as Vice Chairs. Dr. Joylynn Pruitt-Adams is joining our Executive Committee as Secretary, and Michael Barbercheck serves as Treasurer. Also, Eric Crider has assumed the role of Governance Committee Chair, while Allen Palmquist Jr. will lead the Development & Marketing Committee. We thank Mike Lackey and Rich Carver for their longtime service on our Executive Committee.

SEF is grateful for the leadership, expertise, and dedication of its volunteer Board of Directors, whose guidance advances the Foundation's mission to provide opportunities and resources that help students with disabilities reach their full potential.
