NATURAL RESOURCES COUNCIL OF MAINE • November 16, 2022
The Natural Resources Council of Maine’s (NRCM) board of directors has unanimously selected Rebeccah Sanders to serve as CEO. Most recently, Rebeccah was Chief Field and Strategy Officer for the National Audubon Society, where she maximized the impact of the organization’s 22 state and regional field offices. She received her BA in anthropology and environmental science from the University of Notre Dame and her MA in environmental and ecological anthropology from the University of Georgia. After joining National Audubon in 2013 as Executive Director of the Chicago region, she extended reach across five states and increased annual revenue ten-fold. A past Maine resident and frequent visitor, Rebeccah and her family are eager to move to Maine from Chicago.
