years. This is his last week on the job for the State.

Many of the advocates and providers in the IDD community had a chance to meet and work with Mullinix as he worked with the Lt. Governor on KanCare related projects.

He was regarded by many as one of the more accessible staffers in the Administration; his particular interest in IDD issues was appreciated by those whom he came into contact.

His close work with our programs increased as Mark Dugan, Lt. Governor’s chief of staff, became assistant Secretary for KDHE and then assumed the role as campaign manager for the Governor’s reelection campaign.

Mullinix has accepted a position in Chicago with a national consulting group, working with various State governments around the country on a variety of issues, including health care administration.
