The Illinois Department of Human Services has named Robert Mason as Director of Murray Development Center effective February 18th.

In an e-mail released on the appointment, Interim Deputy Director Kimberly Jones-Oparah said Mason brings a wealth of experience and commitment to the leadership administration.

Mason has most recently served as a phychologist/QIDP at Murray Center and prior to that was a special education teacher in the Kaskaskia Special Education District.

Jones-Oparah says she has every confidence that Mason will excel in the new role and continue to drive the mission forward.   She is also thanking Sara Myers and Kacie McIntosh for doing an amazing job covering Murray Center in the interim period since Director Jeff Wehking resigned to take a position at the Centralia Correctional Center.

Joes-Oparah is asking everyone for their ongoing dedication and support during the transition.
