Dr. Aleese Moore Orbih
Grant Award Administrator – Contract Staff
Dr. Aleese Moore-Orbih brings over 25 years of exemplary leadership spanning national and grassroots initiatives focused on capacity building, systems change, and partnership development. Her recent tenure as Executive Director of the California Partnership to End Domestic Violence (CPEDV) and Senior Director of Programs at the Women of Color Network, CORA of California, and FaithTrust Institute underscores her commitment to advocating for marginalized communities.
Her extensive background in pastoral and spiritual leadership across diverse faith traditions has equipped her to train thousands of clergy members on critical issues, including supporting adult survivors of childhood sexual assault, preventing clergy sexual misconduct, and addressing gender-based violence. Dr. Moore-Orbih is a passionate advocate for the safety and rights of Black, Indigenous, and People of Color, including the most vulnerable within those communities. To this end, she has developed and facilitated trainings, provided coaching, and offered pastoral care to gender-based violence advocates across the field and around the country.
Dr. Moore-Orbih’s roots in this work began with her doctoral research on youth exposure to domestic violence in faith-based homes and communities and culminated in providing pastoral care to teens sexually violated by their mother’s abusive partner. That experience revealed that teens raised in faith-based homes who are sexually violated within them ask the same question as adult survivors — “God, where were you, and why did you let this happen to me?” — the same need to make theological sense of their experience. Her work blossomed into faith-based education and pastoral care for adult survivors of sexual assault across faith traditions and the country. With a deep desire to expand her ministry, she began training teen sexual assault advocates and parents of teens. Today, her gifts, experience, and ministry culminate in her work Mitigating Long-Term Negative Health Impacts and Supporting Healing for Black Women Adult Survivors of Childhood Sexual Assault.
As a transformative figure in the gender-based violence sector, Dr. Moore-Orbih prioritizes integrating love-driven strategies into Black and POC community-serving programs — supporting leadership, enhancing organizational and program capacity for sustainability, prevention, and healing, and sharing methodologies that foster deep, long-term change within communities. Her focus extends beyond tackling the immediate issues of gender-based violence to cultivating an environment where prevention and healing are central to community resilience and empowerment.

Board Member
Yaya (Britney) is a mother first—always. Motherhood is the center of her existence, the lens through which she understands responsibility, protection, purpose, and love. Everything she does flows from that place. Professionally, Yaya is a cost controller overseeing large-scale oil refinery projects across America, navigating high-pressure environments with precision, discipline, and integrity. Beyond her career, she is deeply committed to bringing visibility to Black women’s health and mental wellness—advocating in spaces where Black women are too often overlooked, unheard, or underserved. Her work is rooted in lived experience, shaped by trauma, resilience, and a lifelong commitment to healing—not just for herself, but for her community. Joining the PRC board was never about a title; it was about communal responsibility. When Yaya witnessed Malinda and Ms. Kandee leading with love, doing the work consistently, and embracing people as family—not selectively, but fully—she recognized a healing space she wanted to protect and contribute to. Being welcomed in that way, and seeing that same care extended to everyone around them, affirmed her decision to lend her voice, labor, and heart to PRC’s mission. For Yaya, this role is about showing up, making Black women visible, and pouring into a community that believes healing is collective.
Board Member
Born and raised in Los Angeles, I bring a heart for service that began early in life. My commitment started at 15, volunteering as a candy striper at Daniel Freeman Hospital and participating in the AIDS Walk. These experiences planted seeds of compassion and advocacy that have shaped my career.
My commitment to serving underserved communities deepened through my own life and health journey. These experiences opened my heart to the profound struggles many face when trying to access care, find their voice, and navigate systems not designed for them.
With a Master’s in Public Administration and over 17 years of experience in human resources across healthcare, higher education, and the public sector, I have dedicated my career to advocating for people and breaking down the barriers that keep them from thriving.
My most meaningful work is with the Positive Results Center (PRC), where I find my greatest purpose. PRC’s mission to prevent and end trauma from domestic violence, intimate partner violence, and sexual assault—especially within BIPOC communities—is some of the most critical and beautiful work happening in Los Angeles.
I am honored and excited to serve on this board alongside such incredible advocates and healers. The programs PRC offers—from Youth Leadership Development and the Mental Health Ambassador Program to Healing through Trauma and the beloved Prom Dress Gift-Away—don’t just provide services; they restore dignity, build confidence, and create safe spaces where young people and families can heal and discover their dreams.
