A Message From Our CEO

Thrive Virginia is dedicated to supporting and uplifting communities, using a Whole Family Approach to help persons fighting poverty overcome barriers to their success. The Whole Family Approach involves identifying the factors that undermine a family’s overall well-being, then working with the family to solve problems, access new resources, and sharpen existing skills.


As the CEO, I will lead our team as we focus our energy, resources, and attention to driving three significant impacts:


  1. Long-term, sustainable outcomes for families fighting poverty
  2. Healthy relationships that drive impactful, collaborative service delivery
  3. Sustainable infrastructure to support our work


I ask that you partner with us to help build change and create equity for all our communities.


~ Gillian K. Barney, CEO
