Katy St. Clair began at The Arc Solano as a volunteer in the Literacy Program in 2020. She has spent a large part of her life working with and advocating for adults with developmental disabilities. Previously she has worked in the supported and independent living programs with Toolworks in San Francisco, and as a job coach and day program facilitator for PDS Marin. Currently, she is collecting stories from people who grew up in Sonoma State Hospital, in hopes of putting their voices and experiences into a documentary. 

Katy is an award-winning journalist and columnist and has been recognized for her coverage of disability issues. Her story "A Very Special Concert" about Huey Lewis and his large developmentally disabled fanbase won her a Deems Taylor Award from AASCAP, or the Grammys.  In addition, she was a music columnist for the East Bay Express, a celebrity gossip columnist for the San Francisco Examiner, and a nightlife columnist for the SF Weekly. Her most recent journalism work was as a staff writer for the Vallejo Times-Herald and the Vacaville Reporter. 

Katy became the Board Secretary in June 2024.

Although born in San Francisco, Tamara was raised in Vacaville. She graduated from Will C. Wood High School in 2015. She liked English and art. Tami, as she is sometimes called, has always lived with her family. She currently resides with her maternal aunt, older half-sister, and her sister's father. Her favorite color is pink, and she enjoys watching Totally Spies and true crime mysteries. 

In 2016, she became a client of North Bay Regional Center and started receiving services. In September 2023, Tamara joined us at The Arc-Solano as a participant in the ACT program. Much to our delight, Tamara turned out to be a spectacular artist! She has really blossomed in our Art@Arc program. She also enjoys volunteering and our language club. 2025 has been a great year for Tamara as she became the ACT representative on our Board of Directors, and she won a first-place ribbon at the 2025 Solano County Fair for her artwork!

Stacey, a Vallejo native, began working in the disability field in 1998 as a Respite Care Provider while attending Sonoma State University for her Bachelor's degree in English (minor in Art History). She then attended UC Davis for a graduate program in Art History. While at Davis, she continued her work as a Respite Care Provider.

In 2004, Stacey transitioned from the field to the office as an Agency Respite Service Coordinator, eventually developing and managing the company's Employer of Record respite program. By 2014, the Employer of Record (EOR) respite program served over 900 families in 5 counties and employed more than 400 Respite Care Providers. Stacey was also responsible for the organization's two newsletters, the CPR/FA training program, and assisting with the website.

In 2014, Stacey graduated from the University of San Francisco with a Master's degree in Nonprofit Administration (MNA) and began working at The Arc-Solano as the Director of Services. After a few years, she transitioned to Associate Executive Director, and on February 29, 2020, she became the Executive Director. 

Stacey enjoys representing The Arc-Solano in the community. She is a Year 10 cohort graduate of Leadership Vallejo. Stacey also served as a voting member of North Bay Regional Center's Vendor Advisory Committee and spent 3 years as its Co-Chair. Stacey sits on the California Conference of Executives of The Arc of California, is an active member of the NBRC Board of Directors' Public Policy Committee, and participates in the Vallejo Chamber of Commerce.  

In her personal life, Stacey lives in Vallejo with her husband and daughter. She spent 4 years on the board of the Cave Language Academy PTA, and she is an active member of Soroptimist International of Vallejo and 100 Women Who Care/Solano County. Stacey loves watching her daughter dance Ballet Folklorico and attending Alibi Bookshop's monthly book club. 

In 2006, Marianita, known as “Mary” at The Arc-Solano, started working with people with I/DD as a part-time vocational counselor, while pursuing a Bachelor’s degree in Biology.  At Integrated Community Services (ICS) in San Rafael, she provided employment support to clients at a variety of venues, including restaurants, grocery stores, and even at an authentic cheese factory. Marked by her delightful experiences at ICS, she went back to the field in 2016, when she was offered to work as a Tailored Day Instructor at the Arc-Solano by a friend who was leaving the agency.

Since then, Mary has devoted her work and education to The Arc-Solano and the people we serve. First, as Tailored Day Instructor, Mary provided direct support to clients in areas of community inclusion, college assistance, volunteering, daily living skills and more. Then as a Resources and Training Instructor, in addition to direct services, she created and provided training materials to clients and staff about subjects such as autism, disabilities and health. Now as our newest Director of Services, she will oversee the agency’s three core programs: ACT, TS and TDS. In preparing for her position, Mary has completed an Autism Spectrum Disorders Professional Concentration Program at U.C. Davis Extension, and is currently pursuing a master’s degree in Applied Behavior Analysis at Touro University.

Tami’s history with the Arc-Solano began long before she was hired. Her little brother had Down Syndrome and participated in the Arc-Solano’s infant based program, Leapfrog, in the late 1970’s. Later, her family adopted a baby girl with Down Syndrome who also attended Leapfrog. Between her siblings’ participation and her mother’s serving on the Board of Directors from 1980-1987, she grew up familiar with the agency and its mission. After graduating with her Bachelor’s degree, Tami worked different jobs, including as an ILS Instructor in the east bay, a store manager, and a respite worker at Jody & His Friends.

Tami has worked for the Arc-Solano since August of 1994. She was originally hired as an ACT Instructor. After 12 years in ACT, she worked as an Instructor for both ACT and Transitional Service as her Spanish speaking skills were needed by a few TS consumers. Eventually, she was promoted to Program Coordinator for TS and ACT. In late 2009, the decision was made to split the position and Tami’s responsibilities are now exclusively for the ACT program and facility.

After receiving her associate’s degree from Solano Community College, and her bachelor’s degree from San Francisco State University, Jeninne began her work at the Arc-Solano in 2015. Within the Transitional Services department she made it her goal to provide support and diligent instruction to the consumers she assisted, looking to enrich their lives as much as her own. Jeninne feels particularly tied to the population she services due to her younger brother, who is a participant in The Arc-Solano’s ACT day program.

After four years of experience in the Transitional Services department, Jeninne accepted the position of Supervisory Instructor. She looks forward to leading the department towards the Arc-Solano’s mission statement and elevating the lives of all participants.
