Leah Wypych (She/Her) was born and raised in Palm Beach County, Florida. Upon receiving her undergraduate degree from Florida State University, she returned back home and earned her Master’s Degree in Public Administration from Florida Atlantic University.
Leah’s goal has always been to help the community, particularly children and their families. That’s the reason she chose to begin her career working in the child welfare system in 2001 helping children removed from their homes and placed in adoptive homes, foster homes, shelters, group homes, and residential programs. Leah has worked for multiple non-profit agencies throughout her career, including the Children’s Home Society of Florida, the Area Agency on Aging, and Child and Family Connections.
