HeadQuarters Kansas Leadership Shifts | Lawrence News

Megan Bridges is stepping into the role of executive director at HeadQuarters Kansas, bringing a decade of frontline experience from volunteer days to leading crisis services — now focused on elevating both staff and clients. Meanwhile, Misty Eytcheson takes charge of operations, leveraging her nonprofit expertise to connect people with resources and empower the team. This leadership shift follows major organizational changes since last year, including judicial oversight after the board stepped down — now easing as Bridges’ promotion is seen as a natural next step. The group’s next big goal? Recruiting a new board by fall, seeking strong oversight voices. And crucially, starting next week, all calls to their crisis hotline will route through 988 — marking a pivotal transition for 24/7 access.
