The focus of Trepp's life's work had been the lodge model, brilliantly designed by Dr. George W. Fairweather in 1961. Once widely spread, lodge progrms have fallen prey to managed care, mental health "professionalism," and myopic government policy. Thanks in part to Trepp's often unorthodox methods, the Minnesota lodges have survived and thrived, and emerged as the nation's flagship lodge program.
Trepp serves as Executive Director of Taks Unlimited, a program which sponsors 16 unsubsidized lodges in the Twin Cities area, serving 80 people. Three businesses, operated by Tasks to provide a broad range of employment opportunities for lodge participants, generate over $3 million annually (two-thirds of Tasks' total revenues) and pay total taxes equivalent to the employment subsidies it receives from various public agencies.
With a Master's degree in Public Administration from Hamiline University. Trepp has served as President of the (national) Coaliton for Community Living, Chair of the Housing Task Force of the Veteran's Health Administration, Presdident of the Minnesota Association of Community Rehabilitation Orgazizations, and Chair of the Minnesota Extended Employment Advisory Committee. But it is Trepp's 22 year leadership of the Minneapolis-based Lodge Program which establishes his credibility as a social entrepreneur.
