Atkins, Gleason head Victory Fund

Robert Gleason

Two San Diegans were recently elected to the board of the Gay & Lesbian Victory Fund, one of the nation’s largest political action committees.

Susan Atkins is the new chair of the organization and Robert Gleason was elected vice-chair.

“I am honored to lead the Victory Fund as it celebrates its 20th anniversary and enters its third decade working to grow the number of openly lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender elected officials in government,” said Atkins, who has worked from more than 20 year in communications management in life sciences and technology. She is the first woman to chair the Victory Fund board since it restructured in 2006.
