Shundrick Parker has been appointed as director of the F.F. Mueller Residential Center, which is operated by Developmental Disabilities of Clark County (Clark DD).

Parker said he loves his work and plans to continue to give families the support they need as director.

“I enjoy building relationships and making connections that help families through sometimes difficult situations,” he said. “There have been a lot of changes in the field of developmental disabilities, and we need to make sure our individuals and families have the information and support to get over hurdles they face.”

Parker holds a bachelor’s degree in applied psychology from Franklin University, and he worked in several social service positions in Dayton and Springfield, including a district supervisor and group homes coordinator for Goodwill Easter Seals Miami Valley from 2016-19.
