Tammy Fisher

“I am a recent graduate of Ohio University with a  Bachelor’s degree in Specialized Studies of Family Advocacy and Social Services. I chose to finish my degree after losing my daughter to Cystic Fibrosis. The journey that I took with her is the reason my degree is in advocating and social services.

After several years of working in the private sector I took a job with the Fairfield County Board of Developmental Disabilities in 2003. While employed there I worked directly with the individual support coordinators and service providers developing budgets, processing of payments, etc.

I enjoyed working for the Board but it was time for a change in my life and felt that by becoming a provider I could better utilize my talents. “

“I chose to enter the field of developmental disabilities because I have a brother with disabilities and I had always volunteered with the special education classes during school.

In 1978 I joined the Army National Guard and upon completion of my training I got a job at the Orient Developmental Center in 1979 doing direct care with the individuals and I was later promoted to activity therapist.

In 1983 I was hired by the Fairfield County Board of Mental Retardation and Developmental Disabilities as a habilitation specialist. During my employment with Fairfield County I worked in direct care, community supported employment and was then promoted to case management as an individual support coordinator. I officially retired in 2012 but continued my employment until April, 2015 when I decided to explore other avenues in the field of developmental disabilities as a provider.”
