Adrian Bracy – YWCA Metro St. Louis, CEO

NFL to Non-Profit Leader

For nearly 20 years, Adrian Bracey managed the finances for the Miami Dolphins, St. Louis Rams, and Arizona Cardinals, establishing herself as one of the most influential women in the sports business. Then in 2009, she returned to St Louis, drawn by what she describes as “a calling to inspire and make a difference in the lives of women and girls.” The mission of the YWCA of Metro St. Louis, “eliminating racism and empowering women,” was the right fit at the right time in her life. During her tenure as CEO, the YWCA has increased its reach and branched into new projects to help the community including the Women’s Economic Stability Partnership, which helps remove barriers to education for mothers who are interested in pursuing higher education in nontraditional fields.
