Good Morning!

Within the next hour, you are going to hear the news that our own Jeff Davis has been appointed the next Director of DODD.   Although a bit awkward for both Jeff and all of us,  certainly we should be very happy for Jeff and the entire IDD community.  One of our own, once again, has been appointed to the highest leadership position in our field.

It appears that Jeff will have to shift his focus to DODD immediately and will probably start officially working for the state next week.

We will have a Board call today at 11AM today to talk about our next steps, please join the call.  1-800-944-8766 #81840.

Remember this day!  It’s certainly the start of something different!
