The Steering Committee was created to assure the organizational development and direction of the NCSRC.
The NCSRC officers are: Steve Ditschler - Chair (Minnesota General Member); Karen Stanfill – Vice Chair (Texas General Member); Marlene Malloy – Secretary (Michigan General Staff); and Theresa Hamrick – Treasurer (Oklahoma Combined Staff).
The NCSRC “at large” members are: Lee Gordon (Kentucky Statewide Council for Rehabilitation Member); Rhoda Hunter (Oregon General Staff); Gwendolyn Powell (Virgin Islands Rehabilitation Council Member); Pam Stratton (Alaska Combined Member); and Sherry Taylor (West Virginia General Staff).
An “Ex – Officio” position has been created for those persons who would bring specific talents to the SC work. Two individuals fill this position: Graham Sisson (Alabama Staff of the Combined Agency) lends his legal skills and Linda Vegoe (Wisconsin General Member) provides her public policy expertise.
