SEATTLE, April 16, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Stefani Coverson has been promoted to Chief Human Resources Officer at Treehouse. The nonprofit organization partners with youth who have experienced foster care so they have a childhood and a future.

"Stefani has been a key force as Treehouse adapts during the COVID-19 crisis to best serve kids, youth and young adults. Always calm and focused in any situation, she brings a people-first commitment that our staff truly appreciates," said Lisa Chin, Treehouse CEO. "She's collaborative, has exceptional risk-analysis, policy development and implementation skills, and we're excited to have her on the Executive Team."
