WINGS Foundation

Jennifer Stith, MAT, MA

Jennifer Stith is Executive Director of WINGS Foundation Inc., an organization in Denver, CO that works to break the cycle and heal the wounds of childhood sexual abuse (CSA) by providing education, advocacy and support to adult survivors, loved ones, providers and communities.

Jennifer’s professional background includes fourteen years’ experience in non-profit leadership and development, primarily in pediatric healthcare. The challenges Jennifer encountered in accessing services to heal from her own experience of CSA trauma, as an adult, led her to pursue a Master’s degree in Women’s and Gender Studies at the University of Louisville; a certificate in Jungian Studies/Analytical Psychotherapy at the C.G. Jung Institute of Chicago; a graduate assistantship with the Anne Braden Institute for Social Justice Research; and an international internship in Student Affairs at Zayed University in the United Arab Emirates—all to study the many factors creating CSA trauma, as well as its impact on biopsychosocial health. She also holds a Master of Arts in Teaching degree from Bellarmine University and a Bachelor’s degree in Speech Pathology from Western Kentucky University. She is an Expert Victim/Survivor Impact Consultant for the U.S. Department of Justice.

In her role with the WINGS Foundation, Jennifer works to collaborate widely with partners in the public and private sectors to increase awareness about the need and opportunity to address CSA-related trauma in adult survivors’ lives to restore their overall health, well-being and ability to thrive, which is often negatively impacted by their abuse experience.
