    “I believe strongly in the cause of NAOMI because of its central focus of helping people develop healthy and God-honoring relationships. We are created by God for relationships. First to be in relationship with God who created us, then with ourselves and with others around us. NAOMI helps people align their lives in this relational context which enables people to experience healing, joy, purpose and love.​

    I have over 30 years of experience in leadership and organizational development that includes my service in the Navy​ and executive leadership roles at Genesis Institute and Union Gospel Mission​.”

    "I am passionate about developing effective leaders, teams and healthy individuals that pursue sustained excellence and lasting impact by loving God and loving others. Relationships are a key part of healing and I love that NAOMI uses a relationship model to meet the needs of those they serve. I have 20 years of experience in non-profit, educational, and social service roles, most recently as the Director of Ministries at the Union Gospel Mission in Spokane, WA."

    “Ever since first coming into contact with NAOMI it has been an easy decision to support this organization. While including and centering on God in all they do, it's not a requirement for women and children in need, to access the support offered. They are truly making a difference in our community. I am grateful and honored to serve with the NAOMI team.”

    “We ourselves feel that what we are doing is just a drop in the ocean. But the ocean would be less because of that missing drop.”

“Hearing stories from some of the women in our NAOMI community who are working through and overcoming various struggles in their lives continues to inspire me, as a wife and mom. My hope and prayer is that the work we are doing at the Board level continues to create a foundation for growth in our NAOMI community, and for all women who come to be a part of NAOMI in the years to come."
- Michelle Mors, President

As a 501(c)3 Nonprofit, the NAOMI Board ensures that resources are adequate and aligned to meet our goals. They provide governance to the organizational goals and support to the Executive Director and encourage excellence throughout the organization.
