Betsy Sneath

Betsy Sneath has been with Common Ground since the beginning in 1997. She is responsible for the organization’s administrative tasks, including (but not limited to!) bookkeeping, financial reporting and oversight, payroll, human resources, and overseeing the child nutrition program. Before coming to Common Ground, Betsy worked for non-profits in NYC and New Haven, was a recycling consultant to the City of New Haven, and ran a paper recycling company based in North Haven. As empty nesters, Betsy and her husband, Jim, look forward to frequent visits from their children – from Boston, Henry (VP, Corporate & Product Development, Conning), and from NYC, Charlie (Product Designer, Facebook), his wife Jesse (Manager of Social Innovation, Warby Parker) and Kearney (Designer, Shake Shack). Betsy enjoys listening to music, needlepointing, reading, spending time with Jim on their boat, and hiking with their Saint Bernard, Gar.
