The Management Team of Wynhoven Apartments

The Management Team of Wynhoven Apartments is Christopher Homes Inc., a subsidiary of the Catholic Archdiocese of New Orleans Louisiana.


The Chief Executive Officer is Dennis Adams, since February 2005
Before joining Christopher Homes, Inc., Adams worked for 30 years as Chief Financial Officer, Executive Vice President, and Director of The Earnest Corporation (Mandeville, LA). Adams was part of the management team that developed and marketed 1,000 single family lots, 350 residential condos, numerous single family homes, and two 18 hole championship golf courses, with a full service country club and amenities. He also managed a community association of 1,500 members and several condo associations. He graduated with honors in Accounting from Northeast Louisiana University.

Attempting to contact Mr. Adams with problems, or concerns by the residence usually is met with a deaf ear. The only time he is seen around the Wynhoven Apartments is for staff meetings, and public relations sessions.

There has been a number of managers in charge, most have left either under a cloud, or just moved on to better positions.
The current manager, Michael Prada, assumed the position in early 2009. He appears to be concerned with the tenants, but is more concerned regarding his position. Very little, to no improvements have been made under his administration. There is very little known about his background.

Ann Laich, with the dubious title of Director of Service Coordination, is the individual responsible for controlling activities for Christopher Homes. She is the boss of Mary Hunt, a supposed social worker, with no credentials to support her title. Ms. Laiche has attempted and finale gained control over the residents council, (a private nor-profit corporation Wynhoven Residents Association Inc.) This also gives Christopher Homes control over the treasury, that supposedly belongs to the residents.

This represents only a brief listing of the Management Team, which is extensive, and has overlapping jurisdictions.

The over all management is more concerned with its image, then the needs of the tenants.
