She brings more than 25 years of experience in leading nonprofits through periods of growth, with deep experience in communications and fundraising, and a commitment to serving children and families of all backgrounds.

Snider has also served as an Associate Director of the Rockefeller Foundation, where she worked on the launch of several new initiatives, including the Opportunity NYC Conditional Cash Transfer program, a $70 Million Climate Change Resilience initiative, and the Jane Jacobs Medal to honor leaders who have exemplified Jacobs’ urbanist vision.

Hill House, now a resource for more than 2,000 families each year, provides programs, services, and activities to meet the diverse social, educational, cultural, and recreational needs of individuals and families residing in Boston’s downtown neighborhoods. Through programs, collaborative partnerships, and volunteer support, Hill House seeks to build and foster a strong sense of urban community and improve the quality of life for residents of all ages.
