DP’s Community Advisory Committee
What is a Community Advisory Committee?
An advisory committee is typically a volunteer advisory group of appointed community members. These committees are not decision-making bodies. Instead, they provide public input, guidance, and recommendations to help improve support outcomes in the community.
Developmental Pathways recently established our long-term Community Advisory Committee (CAC).
This committee marks a new chapter in improving services and amplifying community voices. We can’t wait to partner with our committee members on this journey. Congratulations to our eleven inaugural CAC members:
Denice Alas-Chinchilla
Laura Ayres
Carson Covey
Jeannie Davis
Kelley Durrant
Genevieve Miller
Roxane Miller-Freutel
Olufonmilola “Lola” Ogunmodede
Yvette Plummer
Ashley Ranasinghe
Cindy Stevens
We extend our gratitude to the interim CAC members whose valuable contributions in 2024 set us up for success with their recommendations on our CAC guidelines. Read more of their recommendations in our report.
The DP CAC consists of nine to eleven volunteer members, each serving two- to three-year terms. Committee members collaborate with a diverse group of community members and provide recommendations for the direction of Developmental Pathways’ efforts.
The committee meets every other month, both online and in-person, with a focus on:
Providing a meaningful platform for sharing information with the community
Elevating community voices and perspectives
Identifying community support priorities
Suggesting improvements and making recommendations related to Long-Term Care Case Management Agency (CMA) and local programming
Reviewing and supporting our complaint process, including holding space for public comment during meetings
