Emilia Quesada

Chief Human Resource Officer

Emilia Quesada, born and raised in Mexico, emigrated from Mexico at eight years old.  She lived in San Pedro all her life until she started a family and moved to Carson, California, with her two kids. The Club hired her in September of 2003. Within six months, Emilia was responsible for administering a 2.5 million grant that the Club received from the Federal Government to provide afterschool programs.  While seeing the increase in the number of employees, performance, evaluations, and trying to meet all grant requirements, Emilia saw the need for a Human Resources department, which she built from the ground up for BGCLAH. She is a member of the Unemployment Trust for the Non-profit, National Non-Profit Employee Association, and Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).
