Hot off the press! Today, Benefits Data Trust (BDT), a tech-driven nonprofit that connects low-income people to public benefits and services, announced that it had selected its newest chief executive officer: Rockefeller Foundation fellow and former presidential policy staffer Trooper Sanders.

As of Sept. 16, Sanders will be leading the BDT team of 170-plus employees, a role that was held by Ginger Zielinskie for 14 years before she stepped down in April. Before BDT, Sanders’ influence touched a variety of workspaces within government, business and nonprofits.

I am honored and excited to join such an extraordinary team.”
