    Lamar Wright - Chair

    As the chair, I call the meetings to order, lead the meetings, and make sure they stay on task. I also keep track of the time we have left. I have been involved with advocacy since 1995, when it was called People First. I like advocating for other people and being a part of the conferences.

    John Griffiths - Vice Chair

    My job is to lead the meeting if the Chair is not there. I also help to set the agenda. I have been a part of SATA since 2011. I like all the advocacy we get to do and starting Build a Movement, to bring advocates and legislators together under a focused message.

  • Fengxian Yuan – Advocacy & Outreach Coordinator

    I meet with the support person to plan the meeting and decide what to resources to share with the group. I joined SATA in 2019 when I came to the Build a Movement event. I have been doing conferences and training ever since.

    Getting BioI help people get connected and make sure everybody gets food. I’ve been involved with SATA since the very beginning. After taking a break, I have been back since 2020. I like being able to talk about different things and hearing what other people have to say.
