Leadership at PARC
Meet the dynamic team leading the PARC to ensure all individuals live with dignity and are treated with respect.
As President and CEO, I am privileged to be witness to so many fantastic achievements, such as a child taking their first steps as a result of on-site therapies, the adult that has learned a job skill and obtained employment in the community, and the residents at one of PARC’s four homes that have been given the opportunity to participate in a community activity alongside their peers. Our website helps you see these programs and the people served daily.
