Kelly Shepherd Watts is the current Executive Director of Trinity Wellness Community Outreach (TWCO). She has served in a leadership capacity at a national nonprofit organization’s youth chapter in Queens, New York from 1983 to 1988 alongside various other nonprofit organizations until becoming employed full-time by a nonprofit in 1992, where she worked in the industry for the next 26 years in New York and Connecticut before relocating to North Carolina.

Kelly has since served The National Association of Virtuous Women, Inc. —rebranded as Shades of Sisterhood Inc.— as the National Director since 2014. In December 2016, she operated on the Board of Directors as the secretary for TWCO until becoming the Executive Director in September 2018.

Aside from having her MBA in Business Management, she has been trained in numerous disciplines to be able to administer unparalleled coaching and support to clients of all ages. This has aided in the creation of a nonprofit program to help single mothers flourish and be able to persist in the continuous improvement of their lifestyle choices through the evaluation of the individual’s strengths and weaknesses. As a single mother herself, this has become a passion project in which the devotion to success comes from the heart.
