MEET OUR SSP2P BOARD MEMBERS
President: E Renae` Antalan
E Renae` is an Army Veteran, wife, mother, and grandparent/guardian whose been raising her two young grandchildren for the past 7+ years. Early on she noted they were not developing along with their peers and sought help. She walked into SSP2P tired, alone, and with a lot of questions. An hour and a half later she walked out with a renewed energy, answers, and a motivated and compassionate Early Intervention team at her shoulders! From her heart to yours, it is truly an honor to be a part of and serve on the SSP2P board. For not only her grandchildren, but to all those who came before, are currently being served, and the countless others that have yet to come. Theirs is truly a brighter future!!
Vice President: Susan Bakke
Hi, I'm Susan Bakke, a Birth to Five Service Provider for Deaf and Hard of Hearing children and their families. I work for the WA Center for Deaf/HH Youth, as part of their Outreach Team.
After 16 years as a classroom Teacher of the Deaf, I was thrilled to become an Early Intervention home visitor. I love working with babies, toddlers, preschoolers, and parents to help young children develop language and become good communicators!
I grew up in Portland, OR, and go there monthly to visit family. I've lived in Olympia for 21 years.
Besides working, I spend time reading, hiking, gardening, cooking, and traveling. Countries I've visited include Iceland, Ecuador, Peru, Australia, New Zealand, Russia, and most of western Europe. I value international friendships!
When I retire, I want to continue traveling, and spend lots of time reading to young children!
Secretary: Katie McKinnon
I’m a wife and mom of twins, and we have greatly benefited from the services we have received from SSP2P.
I am excited to be on the board to help raise community awareness and support the organization for the amazing work they do with families.
2020-22 Board Member: Susan Stewart
Susan is a wife and mother of two boys and a daughter with special needs. "As a Founding Member of Parent to Parent, I felt I wanted to put my energies back into an organization, devoted to helping parents of special needs kids, discover available services and support for the family. With my boys grown and having lost our daughter, I find now that I have time to pursue this. I retired from the Olympia School District in 2018."

She is passionate about fighting for kids and advocates at the Capitol to promote legislature that improves the health and well-being of Washington’s children. She has a husband with Washington roots and one daughter.
2020-22 Board Member: Dee Freeman
Working with families to help all children reach their full potential is my passion. I sincerely believe that the future of every child depends on the efforts of all of us. As a retired professional educator of more than 50 years I am acutely aware that parents are the first and most important teachers. When I look back on the lives of all of my students, especially those who had visual, hearing, medical, cognitive or other types of challenges, the ones who have been the most successful are those whose parents had the knowledge to inspire their children. The more parents know, the better chance of a positive future. Our public school’s systems are seriously overwhelmed, and these kids and their families can’t wait for their support. The input from the various components of Parent to Parent can be life changing. I am excited to be a part group that is providing the input to enhance the future of our entire community.
2022 Board Member: Adrienne Wasserman
Adrienne is mother to three busy boys, the oldest who has specials needs and benefited from the services and resources of SSP2P in his early years. She is excited to serve on the board and assist young families navigate complex and often overwhelming times when searching for support for their young, loved ones. She is a practicing hematology/oncology nurse practitioner and enjoys gardening, beach trips and spending time with her husband and family.
