Board of Directors   2010-2011
Vision and Expertise Shared from the Heart

Steven Vryhof, President
Hope Christian Reformed Church (Palos Park, IL)

A lifelong learner himself, Steve Vryhof also loves sharing learning with others. His experience as an English teacher at Illiana Christian High School (Lansing, Illinois), combined with his Ph.D. In Education from the University of Chicago, equipped him well for his work as Director of Teacher Education at Trinity Christian College (Palos Heights, Illinois), where he helped prospective teachers create a classroom environment that would foster a sense of exploration and discovery in students of any age. An adjunct professor for Calvin College (Grand Rapids, Michigan), an associate of ViTaL Partnerships (a global network of educators based in England), and Executive Director of the Daystar Center (Chicago, Illinois), Steve continues to enlighten and educate through writing and speaking. He brings a thoughtful, studious, perceptive style of leadership to the Providence Board.

Richard Schutt, CEO
Providence Life Services
Orland Park Christian Reformed Church (Orland Park, IL)

With more than 30 years of leadership experience in serving seniors, Rich Schutt is a sought-after expert who generously shares his gifts and vision with similar ministries across the nation. He has served as Chair of the board of the American Association of Homes and Services for the Aging, and has chaired the Life Services Network Association and the Health Resources Alliance boards. He has spoken extensively on issues affecting aging services, including Strategic Planning, Alliances, Technology, and Public Policy. Having earned his master’s degree in Health Administration from Governors State University, he periodically returns there to teach courses in Nursing Home Administration and Concepts of Long-Term Care. He currently serves as a member of the Owner/Operator Advisory board of the National Investment Center. Rich also puts his faith into action by serving on his local church and school boards.
