OUR LEADER
OUR CEO
Art Serna began his career as a youth program coordinator and development professional. He spent a large part of his journey in community development and education working for children and families who are left behind or systemically barred from access to opportunities, in the US and abroad. He joined Teach For America in Oklahoma City as their Executive Director in 2016 as part of leading the expansion of their social entrepreneurship offering, alumni programming and learning around the intersection of education and economic mobility indicators. Art was appointed as the new CEO for City on a Hill in May 2021. To learn more about his background, read his profile: Art Serna.
“City on a Hill is more than a faith-fueled non-profit. We are a movement for good.”
