Kimmie Umscheid has been working with non-profit organizations for over 20 years, and at-risk youth for over 15 years. Kimmie leads the organization with wisdom that comes from a place of compassion and understanding fueled by her own life experiences. An at-risk youth herself, Kimmie grew up in a home where emotional abuse and torment were rampant. She had a brother with special needs whom she loved that later passed away. Heartbroken, she also had to witness the decline of her father’s health. Lacking guidance and resources, Kimmie was forced to begin supporting herself at the age of 17. She later spent her life as a single mom for 13 years before getting married in 2010 to her husband Neil Umscheid Jr. Her passion for helping others led her to accept the position of Executive Director for The Thaddeus Resource Center in 2014. Kimmie is ecstatic about the direction The Thaddeus Resource Center is taking and cannot wait to see what else God has in store.
