Our Staff

 



Michele W. Daly - Executive Director
Michele became Executive Director of the Women's Resource Center in October, 2007.  She came to us from West Chester University's Graduate Social Work Program where she was the Director of Field Practicum.  Prior to that, for seventeen years, she was Director of Development and Communications at Family and Community Service of Delaware County.  While there, she became nationally known for a program she started for grandparents raising grandchildren: Second Time Around Parents.  Michele became an advocate for grandparent rights, and helped to write a bill that was passed into law by the Pennsylvania Legislature that gave grandparents "standing" in court for child custody cases.  Before her time at Family and Community Service, Michele was on the staff of two U.S. Congressmen as an advisor for human service issues.  In 1980 she helped set-up the Bachelor of Social Work Program at Cabrini College where she was a part-time instructor for fifteen years.  Michele earned a BA in Social Science from Cabrini College and received her Masters in Social Administration from Temple University.  No stranger to volunteerism (the backbone of WRC), she currently serves on several community boards.

Sherrie Myers, MS, BSW, Counseling and Legal Services Coordinator
Sherrie earned her Masters degree in Counseling and Human Relations from Villanova University and a Bachelors degree in Social Work from Pennsylvania State University.  She completed her certification in Brief Treatment Therapy from the Bryn Mawr School of Social Work, with a concentration in Cognitive Behavioral and Solution Focused Therapy. 
Sherrie is a member of the Kappa Delta Pi Honor Society, the American Counseling Association, and the American Mental Health Association.  Ms. Myers provides solution-focused counseling, resource information, and referrals to women who are seeking support and guidance.  Sherrie coordinates the counseling and legal services, the professional affiliates referral program, and supervises Masters level counseling and social work students for the WRC. 

Susan Deutch, M.Ed., Coordinator of Volunteers and Programs
Susan earned her Bachelor of Arts from Temple University and her Masters of Education from Kutztown University.  She taught for over twenty years and has extensive volunteer experience with Career Wardrobe, food banks, Habitat for Humanity, and the Allentown Art Museum.  Susan was initially a phone volunteer before becoming the Volunteer Coordinator.  In this capacity she oversees the Information and Referral service, updates the data bank and arranges for all training for phone and program volunteers.  Susan began her position in January of 2006.

Jacqueline Showell, Adminstrative/Program Manager
Jacqueline joined the WRC as the Administrative/Program Manager in April, 2008.  She completed her Bookkeeping Course at City of Delaware County Training School and also studied Accounting at Widener University for one year.  Before joining WRC she was employed as a Bookkeeper for Fidelity Bank and Accounting Specialist for Chester Housing Authority.  For 8 years she was employed at Family & Community Service of Delaware County as a Development Assistant.  Currently she is a role model in her community serving as a Youth Minister both in and out of the Church.
