Kitty Kiefer

Director

Read Bio
Kitty Kiefer (she/her) is a devoted advocate, community educator, and leader in the movement to end
gender-based violence. She began as a volunteer advocate at one of New Hampshire’s crisis centers.
While pursuing her education, she also completed an internship at the crisis center. She attended
Marlboro College in Vermont where she earned her bachelor’s in political theory and writing with a Plan
of Concentration entitled Emancipation in Translation: Language, Power, and Empowerment. Upon
completing her degree, she accepted a position as Sexual Assault Services Advocate at a local crisis
center. Shortly afterward she was promoted to Education and Outreach Coordinator; in this position she
provided support and advocacy for survivors of sexual and domestic violence, coordinated the volunteer
training program, and developed and facilitated prevention and education programs for students of all
ages, the local community college, and adult professional and community groups. Whether discussing
consent and gender stereotypes with high school students or singing about conflict resolution with
kindergarteners, violence prevention was always an area of passion and enthusiasm.
After nearly ten years in the non-profit crisis center, she accepted the position of College Consortium
Coordinator at the New Hampshire Attorney General’s Office of Victim/Witness Assistance. In this role,
she supports New Hampshire campuses in enhancing their response to sexual and interpersonal
violence. This support comes in the form of coordinating the NH Campus Consortium Against Sexual and
Interpersonal Violence; providing technical assistance, resources, and training opportunities;
encouraging cross-training and collaboration with local crisis centers and other off-campus services; and
representing the Consortium on relevant state-wide committees and initiatives.
She lives in the Lakes Region with her family. In the summer, she enjoys camping, taking leisurely hikes,
and reading by the lake. In recent years, she has volunteered with Good Shepherd Lutheran Church, a
charity fashion show to raise awareness of human trafficking, and Lakes Region Dancing with the Stars.
She co-leads a Girl Scout Troop with whom she gets to share her commitment to empowering women
and girls and giving back to the community.

Dr. Chloe Gardner

Picture

Committee Chair

Read Bio
Chloë Gardner (she/her) is a PhD student in Religious Studies at the University of Edinburgh. She also holds an MA and a MsC in Religious Studies. Her research focuses on gender, nationalism and interreligious relation in South Asia, especially India.
 
In 2020, she started her own blog “Herstory Revisited” to share the stories of women who have been left out of traditional tellings of history. From learning about Cleopatra as a young girl, to doing her high school presentation on Anne Boleyn, to somehow crowbarring gender into every university essay, Chloë credits history’s sheroes with guiding and inspiring her throughout her life.
 
Chloë was born and raised in Edinburgh, Scotland and has also worked in tourism there for over 6 years sharing the history of her beloved city with visitors from around the world.
 
When not writing or reading, she can be found playing piano or rewatching her favourite sitcoms for the millionth time. She is also in the top 0.005% of Taylor Swift fans, according to Spotify Unwrapped.
 
She is so honoured to be a part of this project and to work alongside such amazing and inspiring women to help put women back on the curriculum
