Storyteller Jim Duffy is going to spread the gospel of freedom here in America’s sesquicentennial year. He will be telling tales of bravery and heroism that unfolded here in our Delmarva backyard during the days of the Underground Railroad. This won’t be a bullet-point recitation of facts and dates. Instead, Duffy will put you in the middle of the action as keystone events unfold in lives of Harriet Tubman, Frederick Douglass, and other, lesser-known American heroes.

After nearly four incredible decades of service, Acts has announced an important leadership update.

CEO Gerald T. Grant has informed the Board of Directors of his intention to retire at the end of 2026. He will continue to serve as CEO through the conclusion of his term, maintaining full responsibility for Acts' operations and strategic direction during this planned transition.

The Board has initiated a succession process as part of its comprehensive leadership planning, with a full-year transition timeline designed to ensure continuity and long-term success.

We are deeply grateful for Mr. Grant's nearly 40 years of leadership and impact, and remain fully committed to our mission, our residents, and our stakeholders.
