“I am very excited about the stage of life that Angel Reach is in right now, with the work that is being done and the new Village opening up. But there are a tremendous number of kids who don’t know who we are and the resources we can offer,” Alexander said. “This is the time to encourage and accompany these young people who have experienced a hard and broken foster care system into a productive and independent future.”

He added that he is excited to partner with the staff at Angel Reach, “a wonderful team of A+ players who are all here for the right reasons.” Alexander lives in The Woodlands with his wife, Anna, and their three young children.

Anna currently works with their church in the children’s ministry and sees her husband’s move to Angel Reach as a calling for their whole family.
