Farewell to Jill Hanauer
With a mixture of sadness and gratitude, we bid farewell to our executive director, Jill
Hanauer. Together with Dr. Herbert Valentine and other religious leaders, Ms. Hanauer
founded The Interfaith Alliance as a mainstream alternative to Pat Robertsons Christian
Coalition. Her political skills and campaign experience helped to establish the new
organization as an effective counter voice to those who in the name of religion, promote an
extreme political agenda. Under her leadership, The Interfaith Alliance attracted national
media attention, challenged the political power of the extreme religious right, and
expanded to include 109 chapters in 36 states. Her vision, dedication, and friendship will
be greatly missed. We wish her well.
The Interfaith Alliance is also pleased to welcome Gregory G. Lebel as interim director.
Previously serving as Director of Political and Field Operations, Greg will assume
leadership responsibilities until a new director is hired. During this time of transition,
Amber Khan will serve as Field Director.
