Guest guest Posted March 22, 2011 Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 This is one of those OMG moments... I am really sick about this...Believe me when I tell you that she was an ally... This is a big loss for us. Ellen Ellen Garber Bronfeld egskb@... Arc and Director Teninty Resigns The Arc of Illinois March 22, 2011 Leaders in The Arc: I met with Director Teninty yesterday morning before the House Appropriations Committee when she informed me she was resigning. I will miss Lilias leadership and courage during these difficult time here in Illinois. I wish her well and hope to continue working with her and HSRI! Tony auski The Arc of Illinois 815-464-1832 New Opportunity I wish there were a more personal way to share this, but I hampered by impersonal technology. I informed Division staff and all DHS Leadership today that after much thought and consultation with my family, I am resigning as Director of the Division of Developmental Disabilities to accept a position with HSRI (Human Services Research Institute). Given all that we have accomplished over the past four years, this was a very difficult decision to make. I am confident the leadership of DHS under Secretary Saddler and Assistant Secretary Grace Hou will continue to move the service system for people with developmental disabilities forward in a manner consistent with the vision we have established. And they will have the benefit of working closely with the strong leadership team we have developed within the Division. My last day with the state will be Friday, April 15th. Reta Hoskin will assume the role of Acting Director as Secretary Saddler works with the Administration to identify a new Director for the Division. I would like to thank you for the opportunity to serve in this position and for your support of people with developmental disabilities in Illinois.
