Board Members

Client Advisory Committee members are ambassadors to the community. They discuss satisfaction with services and ideas for improvement. The committee plans at least one workshop or social activity each year. In 2016, they sponsored a lunch and training on understanding feelings and emotions. They have also started a support group that meets regularly to talk about topics such as dealing with stress. In addition, they are active with candy sales and fund raising to help defray expenses for special client events.
