Kelly Steinhagen joined EqualityMaine in the summer of 2023 as the new Youth Programs & Education Coordinator.

Before joining EQME, Kelly was a middle school teacher for four years and an afterschool enrichment director for five years. While teaching, she implemented her school’s first GSTA club.

Why we list our pronouns

Names aren’t the only way we refer to people. We share our gender pronouns and encourage you to do the same. Gender pronouns are the way you like to be referred to: she, her, hers; they, them, theirs; he, him, his; or something else. We share these because we do not want to assume another person’s gender.
