Truman National Security Project

Congrats to Truman member Ryan Greer on his new role as Chief Strategy Officer at PERIL.

Ryan has spent his career working at the intersection of national security, community resilience, and violence prevention. In this new role, he’ll help guide strategy as PERIL and Bedrock bring their work together to strengthen efforts to counter hate-fueled and targeted violence.

We’re proud to see Truman members continuing to lead in some of the most important challenges facing our communities.
