In this special episode of Know Your Ship, we introduce a new segment: eHub Gives a Ship — a series highlighting individuals and organizations working to do good in the world and create meaningful community impact.

Host Frank Dolce, alongside co-host Preston Cochrane, sits down with Emily Bell McCormick, president and founder of The Policy Project for the inaugural episode. Together, they explore how policy, community collaboration, and nonpartisan leadership can drive lasting change at scale.

Emily shares her path from private industry to nonprofit leadership and explains why policy is a powerful tool for addressing complex social challenges. The conversation covers The Policy Project’s work across Utah and beyond, including expanding access to period products in schools, creating teen resource centers, addressing student hunger, preventing child sexual abuse, and improving outcomes for vulnerable youth.

Frank, Preston, and Emily also discuss nonprofit leadership, community engagement, and working across the political spectrum. Emily reflects on the importance of upstream solutions and what it takes to build impact that lasts.

This episode is for anyone interested in nonprofit work, policy-driven solutions, and organizations committed to doing good — today and for the long term.
