Our Staff.
Nachelle McGrath, Executive Director
A native of Gillette, Nachelle received a Design, Merchandising & Marketing degree from the University of Wyoming. After graduation, she spent a brief time in Denver, Colorado before returning home to raise her family with husband Josh. Nachelle joined NEW Community Health in 2008.
Nachelle spends her free time with her three daughters, entertaining, gardening, traveling, working out to keep her sanity and pinning endless ideas on Pinterest, but never executing them.
Avery Kerman, Development Coordinator
Avery was born and grew-up in California but called Colorado home for 9 years before attending the University of Wyoming. She received both her bachelor’s and master’s degrees in political science and moved up to Gillette in 2019. Most of her time in Gillette has been spent working with incredible nonprofits and other local businesses, which has helped connect her to our generous community. Avery is excited to continue making an impact in the community with NEW Community Health. In her free time, you can find her traveling, cooking, playing tennis, or more than likely posted on the couch with her boyfriend and cats. She also can’t wait to welcome a baby boy in September 2024!
Ashley Brintle, Program Coordinator
A Gillette Native who is passionate about teaching dance, and loves planning events. Ashley loves working for NEW Community Health, and getting to be apart of so many facets of the organization. Ashley and her husband Chris stay very busy chasing around their three daughters, but when there is free time they enjoy traveling and attending sporting events.
Renae Rearick-Ballard, Foundation Assistant
Renae has lived in Gillette most of her life. She is recently married to Rede Ballard, after losing her husband of 22 years to a heart attack four and a half years ago. She is the proud mother of two biological children, three step children, a proud grandma to two grandchildren, and one on the way. She loves supporting her kids and grandkids in all their endeavors. She has the passion for friendships, and love and appreciates everyone who is placed in her life! In her spare time she enjoys dancing, shopping and traveling.

Community Health Foundation is a 501(c)(3), tax-exempt non-profit organization which raises capital funds to support quality healthcare services for all residents of Campbell County and Northeast Wyoming.
