A registered nurse and educator, Tara’s professional background spans healthcare and academic leadership. She holds a master’s degree in nursing management and is pursuing a PhD.
Beyond The Village, Tara has long been active in the local community.

She is a member of Sigma Theta Tau International Honor Society of Nursing, volunteers with her church, serves as a youth soccer treasurer, and has helped raise funds through school PTO events.
She enjoys reading, seaglassing, and time at the beach, but most of all, values being with her family and their dogs. A proud mother of four, she warmly includes her son’s girlfriend as part of the family. Tara credits her husband, children and parents as constant sources of strength, supporting her dedication to The Village and the families it serves.
Kait Greenberg has been a volunteer with The Village since 2023 and serves as Chief Operating Officer. In this role, she manages the organization’s email account, website and social media platforms, coordinates client appointments, handles client and donor correspondence, including the distribution of informative e-newsletters, and volunteers weekly in the store where she is able to personally engage with foster families served by The Village.
Kait first became involved with The Village out of a strong belief that every child, no matter their individual circumstances, deserves to feel loved and supported. She remains inspired by the dedication of local resource families and strives to ensure they feel supported and know that the community stands with them.
As a Registered Dietitian, Kait specializes in working with clients facing eating disorders, bringing a deep understanding of care, resilience, and individualized support to her work.
