Please welcome the newest member of the AFP-Kansas team. Susan Estes, Wichita, has been hired as the new field director for the western part of the state.

Susan joins AFP after years of political activity and grassroots development in Kansas. Prior to joining AFP, Estes worked for Mid American Credit Union. She and her husband Ron have three children who attend Andover Public Schools.

“Susan brings a great amount of experience in grassroots activism, and we look forward to having her as an addition to the Kansas team,” said AFP-Kansas state director Alan Cobb. “We now have more than 25,000 members statewide and Susan’s skills will be a tremendous asset in activating our expanding membership.”

Susan replaces Rodger Woods, who has been the western Kansas field director since last fall. Woods is a member of the Army National Guard and departs the Kansas team due to a pending mobilization.

“Rodger has been instrumental in developing a strong AFP presence in the western half of the state and we truly appreciate his work to develop local chapters in that part of the state,” said Cobb. “Rodger has been a big part of our achievements this year.

“We wish him the best in his upcoming mobilization, and thank him for his service to our country.”

Susan will be based in the Wichita AFP office. If you’d like more information about forming a local chapter, you can reach her at susan.estes@afphq.org or (316) 269-4174.
