💜 Welcome to the Team: Kelly Selby

We’re thrilled to introduce Kelly Selby, who joined our Parenting+Plus Program in July 2025 as a Family Support Specialist!

Kelly brings with her a wealth of experience supporting parents and children with disabilities, trauma and mental health needs—including work with families involved in foster care. For the last eight years before joining BFT, she has dedicated her career to helping families strengthen relationships, build resilience, and find hope through education and support.

Kelly’s commitment to families also runs deep on a personal level. As a mother who once sought parenting guidance herself, she now uses her experience to empower others.

“My favorite thing about working at BFT is making a positive difference in people's lives by helping parents and children build better relationships through educating parents on how to better manage their children's lives,” Kelly shared. “I was a young, single mom who needed parenting advice, but I didn't know where or how to get it. I get to help the families that I serve benefit from my mistakes and knowledge, which makes it all worth it.”

Outside of work, Kelly enjoys spending time in nature, traveling and crocheting. She also loves 80s music and comes from a proud military family—something that shaped her strong sense of discipline and service to others.

💜 Kelly, thank you for bringing your experience, compassion, and heart to our BFT team! We’re so glad you’re here.
