The South Dakota Hall of Fame named President and CEO Michelle Lavallee to its 2026 class, recognizing her as one of the state’s most influential leaders. Michelle is one of only 10 individuals selected for this year’s class.
This honor reflects her decades of leadership, service and impact across South Dakota and the difference she continues to make in communities across the state.
Children’s Home Society Immediate Past Boars Chair Jack Marsh nominated Michelle for her commitment to excellence and her ability to create opportunities that extend beyond any role or organization.
In December, Michelle sat down with Jack for a conversation about the experiences that shaped her career, her proudest accomplishments and the advice she shares with others pursuing similar goals. Watch the full interview here.
