Chanta Wilkinson, J.D.

I graduated with a B.A. in English from Rutgers University. I also hold a Juris Doctor degree from Rutgers Law School.

​     

After working as an associate lawyer for several years, I served as a Deputy Attorney General for the New Jersey Attorney General’s Office. I was an Equal Employment Opportunity/Affirmative Action Coordinator there, as well. I also previously held the role of Associate Director of EEO/AA for a large New York City hospital. In addition to my legal background, I served as a Human Resources Consultant for a HR and Business Consulting Company.  

I took my experience, credentials, and passion for community building and launched my own consulting firm. Since then, I have worked with clients from a variety of industries, both nonprofit and corporate. Their work spans construction, banking, healthcare, the arts, environmental services, education, and more. I empower clients to achieve their potential and meet their goals.

​      

I am also deeply committed to nonprofit board service as a way to strengthen communities and expand access to resources and opportunities. I serve as Chair of the Delaware Community Foundation and as a board member of the Lewes Public Library and Delaware Public Media. In addition, I’m honored to serve as an Advisor to the Martha’s Vineyard Black Book Festival.
