Speakers

Claire Shanovich is the Director of Development for Oakwood Creative Care, and has a decade of experience in aging and disability services. Starting in High School, Claire took a position as a camp counselor at a special recreation summer camp for children with disabilities. During her undergraduate coursework at the University of Kansas, Claire worked as an in-home care assistant helping both children and adults with disabilities remain independent at home and in the community. After graduating with a Bachelor’s degree in Applied Behavioral Analysis, Claire went to work for the development team at the Rehabilitation Institute of Kansas City. From there she took a position with the grassroots consumer advocacy organization Kansas Advocates for Better Care, where she served in both development and community outreach roles. Today Claire is proud to take the knowledge and experience she gained from direct care, nonprofit development, and elder care consumer advocacy to help Oakwood Creative Care best serve Arizona’s seniors.
