OutFront Minnesota says executive director Amy Johnson is leaving at the end of July.
Johnson took over the organization in January 2009. She was an attorney in private practice before leading OutFront Minnesota.

Meyer also is board chair of TakeAction Minnesota, a progressive advocacy organization.
