He developed marketing and public relations plans to better promote programs and maintain organizational goals. He has been instrumental in assisting in the development, implementation, and control of the organization’s budgeting. In his new role as Executive Director of inpatient services, Orris will draw upon his varied experience to support his team’s growth and development.
