Leadership of Firefly Children and Family Alliance
A group of leaders working toward a brighter future for Indiana’s vulnerable individuals, children and families
A committed team of business and community leaders
Our CEO Tina Cloer
Her own upbringing in a poor, at-risk family fuels her desire to ensure that every child can thrive, and that all families have access to the resources that can support them on their paths to well-being.
Tina is an expert in change management and resource management strategy, which has been particularly helpful during the past two years. With over 20 years of nonprofit management experience, she understands the importance of community systems that work together so that individuals and families have full access to every resource needed to achieving self-sustaining lives.
She participates on several advisory committees related to improving the lives of children and families. Her current board service includes IARCA and Charitable Allies. Ms. Cloer holds a M.S. in Management from Indiana Wesleyan University, in addition to earning an undergraduate degree from DePauw University. She is the mother of three young adults, and enjoys an urban lifestyle with her husband of 30 years.
