After 17 years of leadership, our Executive Director, Mary Haynes-Rodgers, will be retiring in September.
Mary joined Shalom House in December 2008, stepping into the role with great appreciation of the work Shalom was doing in the community. Over the years, she has guided Shalom through many seasons, moments of growth and change, remaining steadfast in her belief in our mission and in the people we serve.
Mary’s leadership has been defined by her commitment to offer hope to those living with severe mental illness. She has worked closely with staff, our board, and the community, to ensure that this mission remained at the center of every decision, even during the most challenging times.
While we will miss Mary’s daily presence, we celebrate her well-earned retirement and thank her for 17 years of extraordinary service. Shalom House will forever be shaped by her leadership, and we wish her joy and fulfillment in this next chapter.
As we look ahead, we are beginning the search for our next Executive Director. Those interested in learning more can view the position here:https://starboardleadership.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/SH-Leadership-Statement_ED_FINAL.pdf
