The board of directors of the Teen Health Center, Inc. is pleased to announce the appointment of Margie Kusnerik, M.Ed. as its new Executive Director, succeeding Angie Brown, MS, who has led the agency since 2016.

Ms. Kusnerik brings a wealth of experience and a fresh perspective to Teen Health. With a career spanning more than thirty years in public education and experience serving on several nonprofit boards, she is well positioned to lead the organization into its next chapter of impact and growth.

“We are excited to welcome Margie to Teen Health,” said Taylor Adams, LCSW, Chair of the Board of Directors. “Her proven track record in the education system and her deep commitment to

essential healthcare services to our community during an uncertain and challenging time. The Board of Directors extends its heartfelt gratitude to Ms. Brown for her unwavering dedication and
outstanding leadership for the last eight years.

“It has been my greatest honor to lead this organization,” said Ms. Brown. “I am incredibly proud of what we have accomplished together during my time here. I will miss Teen Health, but I leave
confident that Margie will advance the mission and take the agency to new heights.”

Teen Health’s board and staff are grateful for Ms. Brown's contributions and look forward to a bright future under Ms. Kusnerik's leadership.
