ABOUT US

KL WELLS

FOUNDER & ceo

KL is a community leader, influential speaker and mother of an addict. KL’s passion for helping families and parents of addicted loved ones has inspired her to launch VoicesInCourage, which is an emerging community that provides instrumental resources for individuals who need to heal, connect and grow during some of the most challenging times in their lives.  Her desire to elevate those courageous voices will be a big part of her professional evolution in the coming years.

In addition, KL Wells helps inspired executives turn their most intense challenges into transformative skill sets that transcend their circumstances and reclaim their own power to create extraordinary human impact.

 For more than twenty years, she has collaborated with hundreds of non-profit organizations, effectively leading initiatives with CEOs, senior executives, board directors, trustees and philanthropists that have attracted hundreds of millions of dollars to ignite organizational and community-wide change. 

The foundation of her experience is designing, leading, and implementing countless capacity-building programs; innovative inter-generational civic engagement initiatives; a ground-breaking visionary project called “Positive Images of Aging” in Florida; co-pioneering innovations in philanthropy applied throughout the world; and training thousands of non-governmental leaders and volunteers to be significantly more effective leaders.

KL was raised both in the Washington, D.C. area and on a 20,000 acre Montana cattle ranch just north of Yellowstone National Park. As the daughter of an Episcopalian minister, she grew up surrounded by three generations of successful entrepreneurs, and cowboys.
