My past experience in the public sector monitoring legislative processes will help promote change in the industry to ensure that individuals supported are able to choose to have their needs met in either family-based or corporate-based settings, to ensure that Family Residential Service providers receive comparable compensation for the work they perform, and to promote compliance that is both fair and transparent.
