Hi, my name is Deidra Brown and I am the Assistant Director for WESCO Industries.  I have been a part of the WESCO team since 2007 and have been in my role as the Assistant Director since 2011.  I have a Master’s Degree in Human Services from Bellevue University and a Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology and Human Services from Buena Vista University.  I grew up on a farm outside of Schleswig and graduated from Denison High School.  My husband, Nick and I live on an acreage outside of Deloit.  We have 4 daughters, Kenzie, Cameron, Hailey, and Whitley, 2 dogs, Chevy and Ella, and a cat named Oreo.

Seeing so many individuals succeed in life and being able to transition back into the community is the best part of my job. - WESCO Industries Employee
They can't tell you when you start this job there may come a time where you find you're more comfortable surrounded by people with developmental disabilities than when you are with the general population. But it happens. - WESCO Industries Employee
Until someone has had their own experience with someone with a developmental disability, they just won't understand. - WESCO Industries Employee
