KINGSTON, N.Y. â Peter Criswell, a first-term Ulster County legislator from Kingston, has been hired as executive director of the Hudson Valley LGBTQ+ Community Center.
The center announced Sunday that Criswell was chosen after a nationwide search for a successor to Jeff Rindler-Jordan, who stepped down in September.
"We are pleased that a person with Peter's breadth and depth of experience will be joining us to lead the center," the announcement from the center's board of directors stated.

Rindler-Jordan stepped down Sept. 30, after four years at the helm, saying he needed to care for his ailing mother. Criswell's start date is to be Jan. 13, the center's board said.
