Kia Bell
Vice President
Chair, Outreach Committee
I’m Kia Bell, the current Vice President of the St. Louis Place Community Association. While this role is new to me, serving and uplifting my community is not. I’ve served on a couple of boards before, and one thing you should know about me—I’m a fearless leader who takes pride in integrity. I am not afraid to speak up and I ask a lot of questions. I believe in humility, collaboration, and being open to change. I’m excited to be a part of this community and looking forward to learning and growing in our community.
My Vision Statement: My vision is to champion the elevation of marginalized cultures with enthusiasm and compassion. I envision a future where the strength, resilience, and contributions of all underrepresented communities are celebrated, their voices amplified, and a society is fostered where equality, justice, and empowerment thrive for everyone, now and for generations to come.
