Governor Tony Evers recently appointed Julie Strenn of Arpin to the Wisconsin Board for People with Developmental Disabilities.

The BPDD was established to advocate on behalf of individuals with developmental disabilities, foster welcoming and inclusive communities, and improve the disability service system. The BPDD's mission is to help people with developmental disabilities become independent, productive, and included in all facets of community life.

“I am honored and humbled to be appointed by Governor Evers to serve on the BPDD Board of Directors. In my everyday work at ODC, we provide supports so that every person can live their best life. It is important to me to extend this to statewide advocacy.” Strenn said when she was appointed.

Strenn is appointed as a Private Provider Representative to the Board through her position as President of Opportunity Development Centers, Inc. Appointed members serve on the Board for up to four years and will then be eligible to serve a second four-year term.
