Kitty Ufford-Chase lives in Lowell Vermont, and was most recently Co-Director of Stony Point Conference Center with her husband Rick. She recently accepted a position with Sterling College whose mission is to advance ecological thinking and action through affordable experiential learning that prepares people to be knowledgeable, skilled, and responsible leaders in the communities in which they live.

Kitty talked with us about her Quaker roots and practices, and how they have helped her through this time of transition and discernment.  She also shared her excitement about moving into a period of her life dedicated to being an Environmental Advocate.
