Representative Chris Flanagan visits Latham School

February 8, 2023

Latham was thrilled to host a visit with our new State Representative, Chris Flanagan. Representative Flanagan toured Latham School with Board Chair Christine Thomas, M.D., Past Chair Christine Gillstrom, Monique Williams (Vice President of Children’s Services), Anne McManus (CEO), and tour guide Daniel (Latham student).

Representative Flanagan was able to meet members of our staff as well as students. He visited our dormitories, school, Daniel’s classroom, and vocational classroom. Daniel presented the Representative with soap created by our students and a ‘Latham Strong’ cap. At the end of the visit, we were pleased to have a conversation with the Representative about the challenges we are facing as a human services agency. Representative Flanagan said he was “inspired” by his visit and offered to support Latham in his role as our Representative.
