Karen Tronsgard-Scott is working toward a world in which all people thrive. Currently she is focused on building solidarity with others who live to end violence across social spectrums with a focus on gender-based violence. Ms. Tronsgard-Scott has worked in the field to end gender-based violence since 1995, first at an organization in Ohio, Tri-County Help Center, and since 2007 at the Vermont Network Against Domestic and Sexual Violence where she is the Executive Director.

In the 1980’s Ms. Tronsgard-Scott worked at the Chitra Lane School for children with developmental disabilities in Colombo, Sri Lanka, where she was first exposed to authentic leadership and transformation.
