Congratulating Tami Hance-Lehr on Her Retirement

2026-07-16

“I want to praise Tami Hance-Lehr. She led a group that helps many students. She did a good job. I thank her for her work.”

Official Congressional Record

Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Tami Hance-Lehr, a pillar in Nevada's nonprofit and education community and a dear friend of mine, on her well-earned retirement. Tami has over three decades of leadership and the last 9 years as president of Communities in Schools, an organization that is near and dear to me. Communities in Schools of Nevada serves more than 100,000 students in 117 high-needs schools across our State, providing students with a one-on-one relationship with a caring adult to remove barriers and help students stay in school. Under Tami's leadership, Communities in Schools experienced unprecedented growth. She expanded the reach of CIS and made a lifelong impact on thousands of students across the State. Throughout her career, Tami has helped prove that when young people have the support they need, they can achieve anything. I thank Tami for her dedication and belief in students. As she steps into retirement, I know that her passion for serving others will remain.
