Beth Scohy - Holding the Mission Together: Leadership in the Face of Uncertainty

Welcome to another episode of the Fostering Solutions Podcast. I’m your host, Dr.
Michelle Foster. In this special Holding the Mission Together series, we’re highlighting
nonprofit leaders who have faced government funding cuts and other uncertainties
while staying true to their mission.
Today, I’m honored to welcome Beth Scohy, a lifelong West Virginian who grew up on
Charleston’s West Side and graduated from Alderson Broaddus University. Beth has
devoted more than 30 years to Daymark, where she’s served in multiple leadership
roles—including Director of Training, Transitional Living Coordinator, and now Executive
Director.
Under Beth’s leadership, Daymark has navigated challenges while continuing to serve
young people and families across our community. In this conversation, she shares what
it has meant to hold the mission together in difficult times, the values that have guided
her, and the lessons she’s learned about resilience and hope.
So, let’s dive in and hear Beth’s inspiring story.
