Resident Involvement

At Deupree House we value the wealth of knowledge and diverse backgrounds our residents offer. Whether your experience as a CFO provides valuable input for our budget committee, your training as a chef might bring new ideas to our dining committee, or your green thumb helps us choose which plants to add to our garden, we value your contributions! Whatever your background or talent, we have a place for you to shine in the Deupree Community!
