She is a member of the board of directors of Project Chimps, a sanctuary for former research chimpanzees funded in large part by the Humane Society of the United States.[9] In 2020, Nash became embroiled in a controversy [10] in which animal advocacy groups asked that the Board of Directors of Project Chimps drop a lawsuit [11] against former chimpanzee caregivers who publicly exposed animal welfare infractions at the sanctuary.[12] On July 25th Project Chimps dismissed the lawsuit [13] but the controversy and claims of mismanagement have continued.[14]
