Jen James - Mental Health Stigma (July 19, 2023)
Jen Peters has worked at the Troy Historic Village since 2018 and stepped into the role of Executive Director in 2020. She came to the Village with experience in organizing community outreach events and teams of volunteers, a background in archaeology and history, and a degree in historic preservation. She coordinates with the City of Troy and Troy Historical Society to bring the Village to its full potential and works with a talented staff to bring the mission of the Village to life. She most enjoys the number of languages she hears each year at the Village Trick-or-Treat event!
The Troy Historic Village is a collection of 11 buildings in what some call a “building zoo.” Started as a way to save history, we now use those buildings as tools to teach history, make connections to each other, and build up the Troy Community. Preserving the past is an important part of our mission, but engaging the community through meaningful experiences is what we are most passionate about!
