Donald Campbell

Donald Campbell is a lifelong resident of Atlantic County, growing up in Egg Harbor Township and attending Egg Harbor Township High School. He graduated Atlantic Cape Community College and Stockton University with his bachelor's degree in Political Science. Donald went on to Widener University Delaware Law School and has his JD.

Board of Trustees
Anthony Lanzilotti
Board Chair
The reason I volunteer as a Board Trustee is I believe in the CIL's mission and want to improve the CIL for all disabled people and residents of Atlantic County. As a totally Blind aspiring Law Student, I can personally vouch for the good work provided on behalf of the CIL. During the pandemic, while on lockdown, my computer with assisted technology died, fortunately through the cares act, the CIL approved using some of those funds to help reconnect me with a new computer with JAWS screen reading software along with other assistive technology. Through my volunteer service on the Board of Trustees, this is my way saying thank you and giving back.
Alyson Bakley
Vice Chair
I am a person who has a disability who hopes to help others through my expertise and lived experience.
Susan Coll-Guedes
Secretary
My belief in the philosophy of self determination, equal access, peer help and individual and system advocacy fuel my interest in volunteering with ACIL. As a disabled person, as a mother of an adult son with significant disabilities that put him at risk for institutionalization, I live, and my daily walk, encompasses the desire to live in a world where disabled people truly have the same rights and opportunities as people without disabilities.
Aaron Wise
Treasurer
I have found through my life that those who need the most help often have the least access to it. I volunteer my time because I can and I offer what I can to the cause. I have been volunteering most of my adult life, mostly in Firefighting / EMS, and live by the philosophy that you haven't lived today until you've done something for someone who can never repay you.
Trustees
Tatsiana DaGrosa
Trustee
Tatsiana's advocacy journey began when her son was diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder at the age of 5. She is a graduate of the NJ Council on Developmental Disabilities (NJCDD) "Partners in Policymaking" Class of 2013. Today Tatsiana serves as a board member of the NJ State Rehabilitation Council and a member of the Advisory Committee for Federally Funded Programs NJ Department of Education as well as an Autism Ambassador.
Tatsiana believes in a strong partnership between families and schools to help all children reach high levels of social, emotional, and academic learning. She also believes that all families, schools, and communities have something great to offer and learn from each other. Tatsiana's favorite quote is by Nelson Mandela "It always seems impossible until it's done."
David Delaney
Trustee
I was asked to serve on the board of directors of CIL and felt honored to be asked. My oldest daughter has cerebral palsy and is on a kidney wait list. I was on the original board of directors for CIL's predecessor, the Total Living Center, so this is like coming full circle in time.
I served the public with the Social Security Administration for more than 31 years concluding my time with the Administration as its Public Affairs Specialist for the State of New Jersey.
I am currently a United Methodist pastor. For more than 25 years of my life I hosted radio and television programs and I also have written for newspapers as both a columnist and a reporter.
Karyn Adams
Trustee
I believe that the CIL offers a lot of resources to the Special Need Community, does great work and is a staple in our community.
David Luke
Trustee
I think I can bring positive energy and excellent ideas.
Ernie Mathews
Trustee
As a person with a disability who has benefitted from CILs in the past, I can contribute my organizational experience so that CILs can continue to benefit other people with disabilities in the future.
Dan Solt
Trustee
I enjoy volunteering my time for the community and disability rights and services are very important. ACIL is a great organization and needed in the community.
Rev. David Delaney
Throughout my life, I have worked with and on the behalf of individuals with a variety of "dis-ABLING" realities. My oldest daughter was born with cerebral palsy and learning challenges, which made the real-life experiences even more real to my family. For 31 years I worked for the Social Security Administration in a leadership position serving on internal work groups focused on those with "dis-ABILITIES" and also as a board member of various organizations including the Mental Health Association, the Camden County and Atlantic County Disabled Advisory Boards, the Total Living Center, and others. As a pastor I strive to ensure full inclusion of all peoples in worship and church activities.
