Claas Ehlers comes to Choose Love after serving as CEO of Family Promise, a national federated nonprofit addressing family homelessness. In his five years as CEO, following more than a decade in other roles at the organization, Family Promise had tripled the number of people receiving services, expanded strategic partnerships, significantly increased revenue, and established itself as a national leader in housing and homelessness.

“I am excited to join this exceptional organization. Already, millions of people have gone through the curriculum and learned literally to ‘choose love,” Claas shares. “My work has always focused on changing the future for children. I look to help transform Choose Love and accomplish that same goal on a much larger scale.”
