Jesse Von Papp

Jesse has filled a multitude of roles over the course of his long tenure at the agency. Jesse was hired 11/21/2000 as a Direct Support Staff. He spent many years as a top performing Program Supervisor, where he garnered a reputation for running a very well-organized program that was particularly adept at supporting people with challenging behaviors. When Alpha merged with Residence East in 2008, Jesse was an established and well respected leader within the organization.

When the East Branch Clinical Manager position became available, it was a perfect fit for Jesse to put his knack for behavior support to more widespread use. Jesse became the Clinical Manager in 2010. In this role he furthered his reputation for providing high quality training to staff, customizing his Right Response trainings to individual clients and their plans.

At the end of 2018, Alpha was contacted by DDA about the opportunity to assume services for a number of clients whose provider was surrendering their contract. We were warned that these would be challenging situations with a lot to be cleaned up. Given the other 3 branches were not in a position to take on a challenge of this magnitude, it became clear we would need to open a 4^th branch. When meeting to discuss who in the agency would be the right person to step into such a role and lead a brand new team in a major turn-around effort, the answer was unanimously, Jesse.
