Maxine Wayda
I am a long term resident of Shasta County. I have a Master of Social
Work degree and have been a Licensed Clinical Social Worker since 1985.
In my role as a Clinical Division Chief at Shasta County Mental Health,
I am responsible for the management of mental health services for children
and adolescents.
Over the years I have spent working in human services, I have become
exceedingly aware of the costs to children, families, communities
and public resources when children are unable to enter school healthy,
emotionally well-developed, and ready and able to learn.
I have also had experience with aligning and coordinating resources
to improve service outcomes. The resources made available through
the California Children and Families Act present a tremendous opportunity
to coordinate existing resources and develop additional needed supports
and services for young children and their families. In my role as
a Commissioner, I strive to use my experience to support community
leaders in gaining a greater understanding of the value of early intervention
supports and services.
