PEOPLE YOU SHOULD KNOW: Joe Sammons

Before working at Challenge Workforce Solutions, Joe Sammons worked at health clinics in Boston and New York City, and was the CEO of Planned Parenthood of the Finger Lakes. He’s been in the non-profit industry for years but says he never expected to end up in the disability arena. After Challenge was without an Executive Director for over a year, when Sammons stepped into the position in late 2015 it took some time to get into a position where the organization could start forming their future, but now they’re ready to look forward.
