On Saturday, May 11th, Jubilee gathered to celebrate Executive Director Tim Wiens’ 40 years of care and commitment to Jubilee and our mission!

“I very much appreciate being honored at the Gala this year for my 40 years of service to Jubilee…It has been a wonderful career in so many ways, and I am so proud of what we have created.”  – Tim Wiens

More to come!

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.

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!

Ruby Society members are donors who have made a commitment to Jubilee’s future as part of their own legacy by including Jubilee in their planned giving activities. These legacy gifts will transform lives of adults with intellectual and other developmental disabilities by allowing Jubilee to continue providing the very best quality service while maintaining staff longevity.
