Shawna Rosenzweig has been named president of national youth development organization Camp Fire. Former Camp Fire president Greg Zweber will remain CEO.
Rosenzweig has served as Camp Fire’s chief strategy officer for the past four years. She first joined the organization in 2013 as director of program delivery & evaluation.
Rosenzweig serves on the board of directors for the National Afterschool Association and is the co-chair of the publications committee at the Journal for Youth Development.
Rosenzweig holds a bachelor’s degree in sociology with a minor in education and applied psychology from the University of California, Santa Barbara. She also earned a master’s degree in curriculum and instruction at the University of Wisconsin-Madison.
“Shawna’s strategic leadership within Camp Fire over the past decade has been instrumental to getting the organization to where it is today,” Zweber said in a written statement. “She has brought our diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts to life over the past four years, driven the charge to address and end cultural appropriation in the organization, helped build the capacity of our national headquarters and staff around the country, and launched and spearheaded key initiatives for the organization, like C.A.M.P.E.R., among other notable accomplishments. Not only is this promotion well-deserved but it gives us the opportunity to further our organization’s distributed leadership model. Shawna is a tremendous asset to the organization and I am excited to see what she will do next in this new role.”
