Okey Ekechi
Program Director
Okey Ekechi, a program
director for Hattie Larlham Group Homes,
joined the Hattie Larlham team in 2005.
Before coming to Hattie Larlham, Okey worked
as a habilitation professional and a QMRP
(case manager) for an ICFMR/DD facility
for 10 years.
Okey is program director
for five Hattie Larlham group homes including
four in Cuyahoga County and one in Mansfield,
Ohio. As program director, Okey coordinates
and oversees program services and the habilitative
needs of the residents living within the
group homes.
Okey’s goal for
Hattie Larlham is to continue to develop
and implement documented processes for the
group homes in order to create continuity
and consistency. Okey holds a Bachelor of
Arts degree in political science and sociology
from Kent State University.
Why I work at Hattie Larlham:
“I enjoy being able
to have an influence in advancing the individuals’
daily living skills, while also enhancing
their quality of life. Plus a very good
friend currently employed with Hattie Larlham
recommended that I work for Hattie Larlham
because it is a great place to work, learn
and grow in the field of MR/DD.” |
