In 2018, Michelle Merriweather merged her occupation and passion, becoming the Urban League of Metropolitan Seattle president and CEO.

As leader of Washington’s second-oldest civil rights organization, Michelle partners with mission-driven organizations. In this vein, Michelle learned about the MultiCare Behavioral Health Foundation and joined its board.

“Being on the board aligns with the things I'm passionate about — ensuring folks have the opportunity to not only survive but thrive,” she explains. “Ensuring their mental health has the proper support has been important, especially for the Black community and communities of color, where these resources and conversations didn’t traditionally happen.”
