In case you haven’t heard, I’ll be stepping down as VPAP’s executive director later this fall. If you or someone you know might be a good fit, please apply! It’s a great team and the organization is ready for the next leader to take it to great places!
If you haven’t heard, Chris Piper will be stepping down as VPAP’s Executive Director. We are deeply grateful for his leadership and all he accomplished during his time with us.
That being said, VPAP is now seeking its next Executive Director — a leader passionate about transparency in Virginia politics, civics education, and advancing a healthy democracy.
Please share this opportunity with your network — and if this sounds like the role for you, we encourage you to apply today.

Some of the VPAP team visited the General Assembly this morning and got a special shoutout from Delegate Bonita Anthony! 🎤 Big thanks to Erica Callicutt, Chief of Staff, for coordinating our visit and making sure we got a warm welcome.
