Seeing the Community in His Eyes


By: Andrea

Mr. Chip Maupin has taken part in our community by actually seeing the problems in people and helping them find solutions to their problems. If you know what I am talking about, then I’m sure you are thinking about a counselor because that is what Mr. Maupin has done for 22 years. He has worked in the Ogallala area and in Sydney, Grant, and the Oshkosh area for 16 years. Mr. Maupin has the passion to help relationships and anything that deals with the minds of people.

I asked him “Who has inspired you to help out?” Mr. Maupin answered, “Milton Erickson influenced me, and he was a Psychologist.” He also said that an old friend and high school buddy inspired him because he was a very good Psychologist as well. When asked what inspired him, he said, “I would like to make a difference in human relationships.”

He said the positive things that make him feel good about working with other people are helping to make relationships better and making people feel better.

When asked, “What is your definition of Social Activism?” he answered without hesitation, “One who tries to improve the lives in their community.”
