Christopher Stone named faculty director of Hauser Center

Christopher Stone, Daniel and Florence Guggenheim Professor of the Practice of Criminal Justice, has been named faculty director at Harvard’s Hauser Center for Nonprofit Organizations. David T. Ellwood, dean of the Harvard Kennedy School, where the center is based, recently made the announcement. Stone assumed the new position earlier this year.

“The Hauser Center under Chris Stone’s direction will be an invaluable resource for nonprofit leaders, and we will continue working to engage those leaders more deeply with the University,” said Ellwood.

Stone brings to the Hauser Center 20 years of experience creating and leading more than a half-dozen nonprofit organizations in the United States and internationally. He came to the Kennedy School in 2005 as the Guggenheim Professor. Prior to that, he served as director of the Vera Institute of Justice, one of the world’s premier nonprofit organizations dedicated to justice reform.
