Thank you, Heather Byrne - Member Statement
CLAUDIA CHENDER « » : I rise today to recognize Heather Byrne, who served as the executive director of Alice House for the last eight years. Alice House gives women and their children a way out of abusive relationships by providing safe housing, counselling, and support services.
Heather's list of achievements is lengthy, from strengthening the finances of the organization to creating and implementing a strategic plan, to leading the team through an organizational transformation in response to a global pandemic. Under Heather's leadership, Alice House managed not only to continue their essential work, but to improve it. I will miss her leadership in the community but look forward to seeing where she will take her talents next.
Please join me in congratulating Heather Byrne on the last eight wonderful years with Alice House and wishing her well in the future.
