Background

About Gregory Snyder

As VP of Engagement for The Arc Central Chesapeake Region, I lead governmental relations and partner with the executive leadership team on strategic priorities. The Arc is a nonprofit organization that provides advocacy, support, and services to people with intellectual and developmental disabilities and their families. I have a B.A. in Political Science and Government from Roanoke College, where I received awards for my dedication, leadership, and service. I also have extensive experience in grassroots and direct lobbying, having worked as a Senior Government Relations Associate at Bellamy Genn Group. I am passionate about disability rights and policy, and I have successfully secured multiple legislative victories and funding opportunities for The Arc and its partners at the local, state, and federal levels. I have also built and maintained strong relationships with key stakeholders, including elected officials, community leaders, media outlets, and donors. I am driven by my commitment to The Arc's mission and vision, and I strive to empower and engage people with disabilities and their families in all aspects of their lives. I am always eager to learn new skills and best practices, and to collaborate with other nonprofit leaders and advocates in the disability sector.
