She has financial expertise and lived experience as a foster parent. Sue and her husband Jim have fostered 8 children and developed a successful trauma informed approach to parenting some very troubled young people. Sue and Jim's children have developed into settled and happy individuals. Sue uses what she and Jim have learned over the years to train other adopters and foster parents. This knowledge and expertise fits very well with WAVE's current work on Adverse Childhood Experiences. The Board are very happy to welcome Sue to the team.
