BOARDMAN Robin Suzelis recently was appointed director of the Autism Society of Mahoning Valley, transitioning from a volunteer role to a paid one.
It is a role she welcomes as she continues to dedicate her life to helping all who are touched by autism, including two special family members. The ASMV has been all-volunteer for several decades, but the board decided to create the new paid position. In that position, Robin can continue to support her family as well as many others.
