Executive Director

Dan Kiniry

Dan Kiniry is the Executive Director of Tiny Hope Village, and reports to the Board of Directors. He is the founder and facilitator of the Neal Park Potluck Meals. He has an amazing, beautiful wife and three precious daughters. In the midst of facilitating the potlucks over the last 11 years, he spent a good part of that time (prior to marriage and fatherhood) experiencing homelessness and needing the hospitality of others, which was a great time of connecting with and learning from others experiencing homelessness in the area.
