Christina Kind graduated from American University with a degree in Criminal Justice in 1978. She has worked in various church ministries since then and is now an active member at Epiphany Fellowship in Philadelphia, where she serves on their children’s ministry team and with their after-school program. Chrissy serves on the board of Called to Serve, a community development corporation in the Tioga neighborhood of North Philadelphia. She also volunteers at Tanner Duckrey Public School in North Philadelphia. Her passion is to see the city of Philadelphia revitalized and hopes to be involved on a personal level and as a trustee of the Patricia Kind Family Foundation. She hopes to help bring lasting deep systemic change so that we will not continue to carry the label of “the poorest large city in America”. She would rather we be known as the city that was able to alleviate the impacts of poverty, racism, and inequity in transformative ways that would make a difference in the lives of every Philadelphia resident. Chrissy is single and resides, worships, and volunteers in Philadelphia. Her proudest accomplishment is being the mother of three wonderful children.
