By Leanna Bergeron
DOVE Center, a local service provider for victims of domestic abuse and sexual assault, recently welcomed two new members to its board of directors. Jerry Salkowe and Vicki Wilson joined the DOVE team, both of whom reside in the St. George area.
Salkowe is a retired physician and health administrator. His experience includes medical leadership roles with the Healthcare Association of New York, MVP Health Care, Kaiser Permanente, and the Community Health Plan.
Salkowe brings with him a passion for DOVE’s mission, recognizing the importance of men engaging as part of the solution to ending domestic violence and sexual assault.
Wilson holds a bachelor’s degree in communications from the University of Utah and a master’s degree in business administration with an emphasis in healthcare administration from the University of Colorado.
Wilson has over 35 years as a human resources leader under her belt, and she hopes to use her experience to help others succeed in their careers and life as well as to benefit DOVE’s organizational efforts.
Board members work closely with DOVE Center staff and play an active role on various committees such as marketing and communications, human resources, fundraising, legislative action and development.
“I can’t say enough about how much I appreciate the experience, wisdom, and dedication of our board of directors,” said Lindsey Boyer, executive director of DOVE Center. “Their passion for DOVE’s cause and their individual expertise help guide us as we continue to grow as an organization.”
Salkowe and Wilson join existing board members Ruth Weniger, Natalie Ashby, Sharon Hoiekvam, Mary Lloyd Barth, Miriah Elliott, Thomas Bayles, Shonie Christensen, Tammie Richeson, and Amori Shaw.
With the welcome of new board members, DOVE wishes to thank outgoing board members Leslie Bowler, Lori Burgess, Jillene Lander, and Deb Townsend for their service.
“I am so thankful for the contributions from Leslie, Jill, Deb, and Lori,” Boyer said. “They each helped to enhance this organization over their years of service with invaluable expertise and enthusiasm.”
