Kelly Miller joined NASHIA in June 2024 in the role of Senior Manager for Technical Assistance.
Kelly’s experience in the brain injury field began in 2020 as a Project Manager at MINDSOURCE, Colorado’s lead agency on brain injury. In that role Kelly supported the Colorado Advisory Council on Brain Injury, facilitated the creation of a new state plan on brain injury and managed multiple priorities related to the Administration for Community Living Brain Injury State Partnership Program Grant.
Kelly also worked in the criminal justice field for ten years as a Probation Supervisor in Colorado’s 5th Judicial District. Her areas of expertise during that time included juvenile justice, sex offender supervision, victims rights, program quality assurance and motivational interviewing.
Kelly also brings twelve years of experience related to child welfare to her role. She began her career as a Social Worker in a residential program for adolescents in the late 1990s when people were still saying, “are we having fun yet” and “talk to the hand”. Roles that followed included Child Protection Caseworker; Youth In Transition Supervisor; Placement Services Supervisor and Executive Director of a child advocacy agency.
Kelly is motivated by meaningful work and she is a social worker at heart.She earned a masters of social work degree from the University of Wyoming. The intersectionality of brain injury within the criminal justice and child welfare systems led to Kelly’s career shift to brain injury focused roles and advocacy.
Kelly lives in the mountains in Colorado. She enjoys hiking, crafting and spending time with her family which includes a 140 pound Rottweiler who loves cheese and snuggles.
