This work has been deeply personal, and I am proud of the work our team has done and will continue to do on a daily basis for Indiana's most vulnerable. I am grateful to Governor Braun for the opportunity to continue serving Indiana by transitioning into a new role as special advisor to the Governor on child welfare related matters,” said Krupp. “Indiana's children deserve a system that is stable, compassionate, and relentlessly focused on their well-being; I look forward to being part of that vision moving forward.”
