Randallstown Resident Joins Nonprofit Board to Aid Victims of Child Abuse

Maryland CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocate) Association has appointed Sheena W. Roberts, M.H.A. to a two-year term on its board of directors.

Ms. Roberts brings over 10 years of administration experience in both for-profit and not-for-profit sectors, and looks forward to advocating for Maryland’s abused and neglected children.

“I’ve always had a great deal of interest in serving my community, specifically advocating for the socially and economically disadvantaged,” said Roberts. “Having the privilege to serve on the [CASA] board will allow me to support a cause which nurtures our future leaders; I look forward to contributing to positive change,” she added.

Roberts earned her Bachelors of Science in biology from Morgan State University and went on to attain her Masters of Healthcare Administration from the University of Maryland, University College. She currently serves as a Health Care Administrator for the Greater Baltimore Medical Center (GBMC), where she focuses on strengthening the operational performance of health care services and oversees the quality improvement of programs to meet the evolving needs of graduate medical education.

“I look forward to getting out into the community and advocating on behalf of Maryland CASA Association. While this will be my first board experience, I aspire to do whatever I can to make a contribution that has a long-lasting impact on the lives of vulnerable children,” said Roberts.

Roberts is a resident of Randallstown, Md., who resides with her loving husband, Jason and their two children, Sydney and Jeremiah.
