Trevor Umphress - Board Member

Trevor Umphress is a native of Yuma, Arizona, where he resides with his wife and their four children. He studied International Business and minored in Spanish at Northern Arizona University. His career began in the corporate world of construction and restorations; after seven years of success as a project manager and estimator, he put away his hard-hat to begin a new quest into the nonprofit world.

Trevor partnered with Amberly’s Place, a family advocacy center, to assist the organization with financial sustainability. When that dream was achieved, Trevor was excited for a new journey as the executive director of the Arizona Child & Family Advocacy Network. In this role, Trevor’s accomplishments have included getting defining legislation passed, and the creation of a fund that supports all family advocacy centers throughout the state.

It brings Trevor great joy to know he plays an active role in the thousands of lives that begin their journey from victim to survivor. “I believe that protecting children is everybody’s business,” he says. “I invite you to take a stand against abuse and be a voice for those in need. Together we can stop the cycle; together we can end abuse.”
