Justin Behrens, a resident of State College, joined us Nov. 1st, 2024. Justin brings enthusiasm and energy to CRDSS with his master's in social work. His experience as a leader in a Scouting unit for individuals with Down syndrome and as a coach for his cousin's volleyball team showcases his dedication to this community. Justin is committed to amplifying the voices of those who often go unheard in the Centre Region by fostering community connections and collaboration. Justin can be contacted at [email protected].
Former Executive Director, Anne Marie Rodgers, retired at the end of October in 2024. She hopes to continue to assist CRDSS in a volunteer role and maintain the relationships she has made with CRDSS member families. |
