  THE FOUNDERS  
Drs. Steven and Christine Robinson founded ILDI in 2004 after realizing that local organizations needed empowerment and capacity development. Instead of dictating program specifics or structure, they formed ILDI to be able to partner for development with local nonprofits.
Both trained as physicians, their approach to the community issues
they encountered was like that of a clinician’s approach to a patient with several diseases needing treatment – a holistic, integrated approach. The approach is reflected throughout ILDI’s vision, values and most importantly, program design. x
Dr. Steven Robinson received his MD degree from Vanderbilt University School of Medicine in Nashville, TN and currently is a hospital-based physician at a large referral hospital in the area. He serves as ILDI’s Board Chairman. Dr. Christine Robinson worked as a commercial banker in a mid-sized bank after graduating from Indiana
University in Bloomington, IN with a Bachelor’s degree in Economics. She then matriculated at Vanderbilt University School of Medicine for her MD-Masters in Public Health degrees. She now heads ILDI as President.
