Carla Robertson, Secretary

Carla joined Kaiser Permanente in July 1977, and currently works as the Assistant to the Vice President of Health Plan Services. She joined KaiPerm in 1982, and has served on the Board of Directors since May 1990. Of her choice to serve, she says, "I decided to run for a position on the Board of Directors because I felt I could bring some administrative and organizational experience to the group. I have found over the years that I have learned much more than I have imparted. I am passionate about the principle of members helping/serving each other. I have enjoyed watching the institution mature, grow, and develop into a stronger organization."

Pete Lang

Pete worked for Kaiser for 34 years--19 years with the medical group in Southern California, and the balance of time with the health plan of the Northwest. His last position at Kaiser Permanente was the director of Eyecare Services. He joined KaiPerm in 1986, and joined the board a year later. He has been on the board ever since. Of his decision to serve, he says, "Previously I had been a member of and involved with the credit union in the Southern California region, but I did not serve on the board there. I thought I had something to offer the credit union movement and KaiPerm. When a position on the board became available, I applied. The rest is history." Read more about Pete Lang.

Bill Butcher

He's held positions in Member Relations, Dental Operations, Human Resources, and Medical Operations. Currently, he works as the Assistant Administrator for Support Services at our Kaiser Sunnyside Medical Center. Wanting to get involved in a volunteer role that would exercise his financial skills and give something back, Bill ran for and was elected to KaiPerm's board ten years ago. During his years of work on the board, he has served as Vice Chair and Chair. Regarding his experience with and commitment to KaiPerm, both as a member and as a board member, Bill says: "I'm a big believer in the power and value of credit unions. Whether I contribute my time as a board member, by adding to my savings, or by taking out a loan, I know it's time and money well spent. Sure, you might find higher savings rates or lower interest rates elsewhere, but for me, it's hard to pass up any opportunity to invest in an institution where I'm a member/owner and that I know will serve my financial needs for many years to come."
