Lisa Stahlman, Secretary
Pharmacist | Wellspan Pharmacy
Born and raised in York County. Graduated from Dallastown High School. Graduated from Temple University School of Pharmacy in 1988. Works for Wellspan Pharmacy Dallastown as the pharmacy manager. Has been with Wellspan for 23 years. Met Lori Ziegler in 1995 when I started working at York Apothecary (now Wellspan Pharmacy). Attended Women of Faith conference in Philadelphia with Lori where Sarah Trollinger and a teen from House of Hope Orlando were speaking. Lori asked me to come along side her to help her start a House of Hope here in York. I’ve been with House of Hope since 2005. I have served in many different capacities, most recently as secretary of the House of Hope board. I feel that I can help our teens, not by being able to connect with them due to their circumstances that caused them to come to HOH but by being able to show them unconditional love. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, camping, watching my husband race cars and my son autocross, boating on Raystown Lake and spending time with my family (husband Erich, daughter Danielle, son Nicholas and four legged child, Zues) and friends.
