Hamilton\nLisa M. Hamilton is the president and chief executive officer of the Annie E. Casey Foundation\, a private philanthropy based in Baltimore and dedicated to building a brighter future for children\, youth\, families and communities in the United States. The Foundation was established by Jim Casey\, founder of the logistics company UPS\, and named in honor of his mother. \nSince taking the helm in 2019\, Hamilton has spearheaded several new initiatives to maximize Casey’s impact\, including its Thrive by 25® effort\, which aims to improve outcomes for adolescents ages 14–24 to ensure they successfully transition to adulthood. \nBefore becoming president\, Hamilton was the Foundation’s executive vice president and chief program officer\, overseeing all the organization’s grant-making efforts. Prior to that\, she served as vice president of external affairs\, leading Casey’s work to provide data\, analysis\, research and policy solutions to help all children realize their full potential. In this role\, Hamilton oversaw the Foundation’s annual KIDS COUNT Data Book and was a key architect of the Race for Results series\, which compares how children across racial and ethnic groups are faring at the state and national levels on key education\, health and economic milestones. \nHamilton came to the Foundation after a 14-year career with UPS\, where she held various roles\, including president of the UPS Foundation and vice president of corporate public relations. Her unique blend of philanthropic and corporate expertise has helped Hamilton expand Casey’s reach and find new ways to improve child well-being.\nA testament to her influence in the sector was Hamilton’s selection as one of Inside Philanthropy’s 50 most powerful women in U.S. philanthropy in 2023 and her inclusion in the Nonprofit Times’ Power & Influence Top 50 list in 2019\, 2020\, 2021 and 2024. \nHamilton’s dedication to service extends beyond the Annie E.

Adults already in the workforce\, particularly low-income workers\, face the additional challenge of “benefits cliffs” – despite acquiring additional skills and a higher salary\, their income may end up being lower as they are no longer eligible for financial assistance such as child care subsidy and a portion of benefits from the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program or SNAP. \nAs part of their efforts to help address benefits cliffs\, the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond and the United Way of Central Maryland have partnered with the Atlanta Fed to use CLIFF tools\, a suite of digital resources that showcase the loss of public assistance a worker might face with an increase in income\, and the simultaneous gap in financial resources this causes. The CLIFF tools also facilitate the simulation of policy and programmatic solutions. \nYou will be one of the first in Maryland to see how these new tools and resources are being deployed and ask questions.
