Our People
Kathy Ratz
Secretary
WHY ARE YOU INVOLVED WITH THE BOARD?
I wanted to be involved with the ARC Board because the ARC has been an extremely valuable resouce to our family and I want to be a part of expanding these resources to help other families that have individuals with developmental disabilities.
WHAT STRENGTHS DO YOU BRING TO THE BOARD?
I have a son, Michael, who has severe physical needs. I have learned the value of involvement and advocacy to enrich his life and also the lives of children that I have taught over the past years, so that they can reach their highest potential. I am passionate about inclusion of children in their communites and want to see opportunities for inclusion expanded in our communities.
