Rachel Jefferson, Executive Director

Ms. Rachel Jefferson, Executive Director of Groundwork Northeast Revitalization Group (Groundwork NRG), was born in Kansas City, Missouri and attended Georgetown University in Washington, D.C. 

Upon returning to Kansas City, Rachel relocated to the Kansas side of the state line, and began a career in public health as Outreach Director and Administrative Assistant at a local safety-net clinic. Rachel’s time in the healthcare sector provided her with an understanding of the socio-economic struggles that hinder good health among minority populations and ignited her passion to support the growth of human, social, and civic capacity at the grassroots and community levels.

Rachel currently lives and works in the northeast pocket of Kansas City, Kansas and has come to love and appreciate the neighborhood people that have persevered in the fight to create an equitable Kansas City, Kansas for all.
