- Biography
- THERESA WOOD grew up in Waterbury and attended Champlain College, earning a Legal Assistant degree and later a Bachelor’s degree in Business from JSC. Her career has been primarily in State government where she found her life’s passion—helping people with disabilities live full lives as valued citizens in our communities. She was formerly director of Developmental Disability Services and deputy commissioner of the Department of Disabilities, Aging and Independent Living. She was honored with the creation of the Theresa Wood Citizenship Award, a statewide recognition given out yearly to a person with developmental disabilities who embodies her qualities. Theresa was executive director of the VT office of APS Healthcare, a national corporation that contracted with the State to help Medicaid recipients manage their chronic conditions. Tropical Storm Irene brought devastation to her hometown; after helping rebuild her mother’s home, she was chair of ReBuild Waterbury. Theresa’s community service also includes work on the school board, Revitalizing Waterbury, Rotary Club, Historical Society, and her church. Theresa previously served on the Corrections & Institutions Committee and currently serves on the Human Services Committee. Theresa lives with her husband, Gordon, in Waterbury. She’s an animal lover, enjoys flower gardening, and is an eager card and board game player any chance she gets.
