Founder and Executive Chairman
As an agency owner since 1998 I have committed my professional career to serving the IDD community. Cura is the expression of a lifetime of service and a desire to make life better for consumers and the amazing, dedicated staff who make their lives better. I enjoy fishing, any outdoor activity and spending time with family and friends. I love figuring out better ways to serve the customers who depend on us, my family and ultimately the clients that receive services from the IDD service community.

Embracing the chance to apply the skills I've honed over my career to to conceive and construct an innovative solution for the community that has given so much to my family through our journey with my son's autism, it has been the most rewarding opportunity of my career. I love the team we have built and every day we are getting to solve new challenging problems with the best and brightest minds in the industry. I enjoy being active, working out or cycling and spending time with my wife, two teenagers, two Rhodesian Ridgebacks, and daughter's two rabbits. We enjoy spending time volunteering and advocating for autism and other developmental disability related causes and in my downtime I am an avid reader.

Curtis Stanley
Chief Executive Officer
One of the most formative experiences in my life was attending a Jesuit school. The Jesuits powerfully impressed upon me the degree to which our lives benefit from the contributions of others who came before us, and the importance of committing ourselves to live in service of others. The Cura team, working in concert every day for the benefit of the I/DD HCBS community is the most powerful realization of that commitment I have ever experienced. Cura is a team of extraordinary individuals who have come together from across the country and from various important disciplines. We are united with a shared passion to improve the lives of across the I/DD support community. Working with these incredible people, and seeing the positive impact we're having every day is the most rewarding experience of my career.
