About clair minson, our founder
Clair Minson, Founder and Principal Consultant of Sandra Grace LLC, is a non-profit leader, racial equity consultant, and theologian who leverages her decade-plus experience in workforce development and mental health counseling to maximize the impact of forward-thinking institutions across the United States.
Anchored in her faith in the human capacity for change and propelled by a critical analysis of systemic and institutional racism, Clair works with clients in the public and private sectors to develop and implement sound strategies that address the root causes of social inequity. She first entered the field as a counselor, directly supporting formerly incarcerated people in identifying and developing their skills and passions upon re-entry into their communities, and later transitioned into the role of philanthropic strategist where she was charged with positioning workforce development as a catalyst for economic justice.
In 2019, Clair founded Sandra Grace, a change management firm that provides training, consulting, and thought-partnership to non-profit, for-profit, and public organizations in embedding racial equity practices in their policies, operations, and programs. Sandra Grace serves clients in Baltimore, Boston, Chicago, New Orleans, San Francisco, among other cities.
Clair completed her B.A. in Psychology at Clark Atlanta University and her Master's in Community Counseling from Argosy University; and she is currently pursuing a Master’s of Divinity at Lutheran Theological Southern Seminary. She is a Nationally Certified Counselor (NCC) and a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in the state of Maryland.
Clair is from the Bahamas and currently lives in Colorado with her two daughters.
