Julie Senckowski
Julie Senckowski has been a resident of public housing in Worcester, MA for 10 years. Long interested in helping residents help themselves, Julia was appointed to the Worcester Housing Authority Board of Commissioners by the Worcester City Manager.

Julia has worked tirelessly to assist residents in establishing duly elected "tenant associations." Her dedicated pursuit of this goal finds her working with residents several nights each week and many weekends. Her energy level is legendary -- amazing those who work with her (and who try to keep up). Her hard work has resulted in the establishment of 13 duly elected tenant associations over the past 24 years.

As a tribute to her dedication and effectiveness, Julia was elected Chairperson of the Worcester Housing Authority Board of Commissioners -- a position she now holds. Julia also is the tenant coordinator of the agency's RAB (Resident Advisory Board) and is an active member of the Massachusetts Union of Public Housing Tenants Board of Directors. The Worcester City Commission of Elder Affairs also has honored Julia for her work assisting seniors in the city.
