Hover over a name to see the position and date range. This table only
includes positions where at least the start date is known. The positions count
can count the same person multiple times if they held different positions;
similarly, the list of staff may include the same person multiple times if
they held more than one position during a single year.
For each year, a person is included if they were at the organization for any
part of the year; this means the actual staff count at any point during
the year can be lower (or higher, if some staff held multiple positions in a
single year).

advisors, and board members.

the old name) and colored yellow. Additionally there are faded variants of each
color for visited links.

Jacy Reese, a public figure in animal welfare advocacy and a key member of the Sentience Institute, posts an apology on the Effective Altruism Forum: "It has recently been brought to my attention that I have made people uncomfortable through my verbal and written advances. I’m deeply sorry to everyone I hurt or made uncomfortable. I intend to step back from public life and the activism communities I’ve belonged to and reflect on my mistakes further." Marc Gunther, a commentator on animal welfare activism and nonprofit activity, describes the post as follows in [3] "An 812-word statement, under the headline “Apology,” posted last week by Reese on the forum of the Centre for Effective Altruism, the global hub of the effective altruism movement."
