WRAP Reporter
1999 Annual Report

An Active, Dedicated Board...
...Makes WRAP Thrive

One of WRAP’s biggest strengths is its active, passionate board of directors. Representing the many diverse segments of the metro region, board members come together with one goal in mind: to stop needless highway deaths and injuries caused by impaired drivers and underage drinking. Though varied in their talents, expertise and experience, WRAP’s board members share a common vision of keeping public and media attention focused on safe and sober driving. Board members come to the table providing enormous energy, enthusiasm and determination combined with a forceful desire to make impaired driving a thing of the past. This is not solely an advisory group, but individuals who roll up their sleeves, working to make the organization effective, dynamic and lifesaving. Many board members continue to serve year after year because they have seen first-hand the organization’s positive impact on the region and---when WRAP’s programs are replicated elsewhere---on the country.
