Q-and-A With Peter Wilderotter, president and CEO, Christopher & Dana Reeve Foundation

FS: What are some of the goals you hope to accomplish with the merger?
PW: Create a community with a stronger and more effective reach that reflects the largesse of our community: 1,275,000 as recently identified in our prevalence study

FS: To what extent will both organizations merge programs, services and mission? Will they operate as separate entities with two names or join under one name?
PW: We will operate under the Reeve banner and infrastructure — Life Rolls On will become a division under Reeve, keep some board members and recruit new ones, and expand the programs and efficiencies of the Life Rolls On program and brand.
