You can have a positive impact in the lives of people with intellectual and developmental disabilities by serving on the PSRS Board of Directors.  We are looking for people who can make a modest time commitment to help oversee and improve our operations, focus on fundraising, and bring professional skills, expertise, and diverse perspective to our organization.  This is a great way to give back, to support a cause you care about, and to join a fine team of people who share an interest in ensuring PSRS continues to thrive. 

If you are interested in learning more, we would love to hear from you.  Please reach out to us at: board@gopsrs.org

Thank you to all of our board members!

Board Members

Jackie is a professional guardian, proud grandmother, and founder of PSRS who has been a board member on and off since 1985.  She is on the PSRS Board of Directors today because she is dedicated to PSRS, and “wants to ensure the quality, goals, and vision stay intact”.

Theresa is a mother of two, a wife, dog lover, wine & food enthusiast, urban gardener, and real estate agent. She joined the PSRS Board of Directors in 2019 because people who cannot advocate for themselves need a voice, resources, and understanding.  She helped her elderly neighbors get care through persistent advocating, and assistance while respecting their rights - this experience gave her a sense of the challenges vulnerable people often face.  Theresa now offers PSRS her skills and commitment to educating others about people who need a voice in our communities.

Joelle is a senior project manager and has been a board member since 2016.  She is on the PSRS Board of Directors today because she is “passionate about giving back to the community and serving to improve the lives of those with intellectual and developmental disabilities”.

Shawn is a medical assistant at a local hospital and has been a board member since 2007.  She is on the PSRS Board of Directors today because she “truly believes in the mission of Puget Sound Regional Services”.
