Leadership Team

FOUNDER & CEO

Brooke Neubauer

Brooke Neubauer founded The Just One Project in 2014 around one simple idea: it takes just one person to make a difference in the life of another.

Under her leadership, TJOP has grown from a grassroots volunteer effort into an organization taking a systems approach to fighting food insecurity by connecting people to food, resources, and supportive services across Southern Nevada.

Brooke has led the organization through significant growth while keeping dignity, access, innovation, collaboration, and the client experience at the center of the work. Her focus is building strong systems that help families avoid falling through the cracks, find support during crisis, and move toward greater stability.
