June Waller

June Waller hails from New York, but has been a fixture in Colorado Springs for more than 50 years as an advocate for social justice issues and inspiring others to get involved in their community. Prior to her retirement, Ms. Waller made a career in strategic planning, training personnel, and counseling residents on quality of life improvements. She worked as the Executive Director of Colorado Springs Housing Authority, managed public and private housing developments, researched affordable housing solutions, made presentations to community groups, and sat on various commissions. She has served on countless boards and committees, including the Foundation for School District 11, NAACP Executive Committee, the Citizen Transportation Advisory Board, the Citizens Advisory Committee for Colorado Springs Police Department, and the Black Latino Leadership Coalition of Colorado Springs. Today, in addition to serving as a board member of Caleb's Approach, Ms. Waller is the founder of Let's Do It Again, a small retail shop of gently used educational toys for children. She says she started this endeavor to make sure children today are aware of other forms of learning and entertainment outside of their electronic devices, and all of the proceeds from Let's Do It Again are donated to local non-profit organizations.
