Mrs. Tubbleville has also worked for Orange County for more than 20 years. The first 21 years in Information Management and for the past year and a half as Executive Director of the non-profit Orange County Disaster Rebuild. Their mission is to assist individuals and families who have unmet needs with recovery from any natural or man-made disasters by working closely with case managers to identify resources necessary to meet these needs.
Under Michelle’s direction, Orange County Disaster Rebuild has assisted over 250 families in Orange County to complete or rebuild their homes. OCDR also helps families with mental health and crisis counseling. All this has been made possible by Michelle working tirelessly to coordinate several agencies and volunteers.
Keep Orange County Beautiful is proud to welcome both of these new Directors to their management team.
