On April 30th, Jubilee announced the new Executive Director Steve Keener, exactly two months before Tim Wiens’ retirement. Steve, a former Jubilee Board member, comes to Jubilee from Special Olympics International where he served on the legal team for the past five years. He previously served as Chief Operating Officer for L’Arche Greater Washington, D.C. and in direct service at Mennonite Disabilities Committee. Steve assumes the responsibilities of the position on July 1, 2019.

On April 28th, Jubilee participated in the Kensington Day of the Book featuring books authored by Jubilee’s own, Tyecia Lee. 

That was the question that Karen Lehman, MHS President and CEO, and Su Flickinger, Consultant, asked a small group of people associated with Jubilee Association of Maryland, Inc. on March 16th! We had lunch at the Sullivan House, which will open soon to house three persons with developmental differences, in partnership with Potomac Community Resources. The enthusiasm was palpable!

On February 16^th, Jubilee gathered the 41 families of the Ruby Society to honor and thank them for their planned giving to Jubilee, as well as individuals and Jubilee staff.

“When I leave on June 30th, 2019, I will have been the Executive Director of Jubilee for more than 40 years. It has been a wonderful career for me and it will be difficult for me to leave the work and the people whom I love so much.” – Tim Wiens
