Anita Evanyo
Anita’s career overlaps two HCBS waivers -SLS and DD and has worked within two CCBs over the past two decades. Anita started her career in the intellectual and developmental disabilities field as a direct care professional working in an eight-person group home doing the three-day shift. She then moved to Supported Living Services first as a broker and then managing multiple innovative programs including a day program, young adult’s groups, volunteer groups, and independent living courses. Over the past eight years Anita worked within the HCBS- DD waiver and oversees the 24-hour comprehensive residential program. This program has grown 25% over that period and specializes in customizing service to meet the individuals’ needs.
