Bruce Palmer

Bruce is a long-time Lander resident, arriving in 1990 with his wife, Peg, and two kids, Clay and Cole for what they thought was to be a couple of years in the wild West before skedaddling back home to Massachusetts. Thirty-plus years later the Palmers are still here. The family expanded by one with the addition of Loren in 1994.

​

Bruce worked for NOLS from 1990 until 2018, directing the school's marketing and admission efforts and serving on the executive team.

​

Since 2018 Bruce has worked as a political consultant and is currently leading the fight for Medicaid expansion as director of the Healthy Wyoming coalition.

​

The Lander Free Medical Clinic aligns perfectly with Bruce's belief that access to healthcare is a right and that no person, regardless of where they live or how much they have should be denied the care they need to live fulfilling and productive lives.
