Anne Brown

President and CEO of the Cook Center for Human Connection, Anne Brown, brings a unique blend of education, corporate, and non-profit leadership to solving the crisis of youth mental health and youth suicide. Her decades of experience as an Ed Tech executive and Public School teacher offers a wealth of talents and abilities to her role. However, more important than the skills Anne offers, it is her early life that gives her a heart for this work. With a father who suffered from alcoholism and bi-polar disorder and a grandfather who died by suicide, Anne understands first-hand how mental illness and suicide not only affects the person suffering but all of those around them.
