2023 saw a changeover in our Board of Directors as former members transitioned off at the end of their term and new members joined us. We added core competences and strengths to best position our organization for the anticipated increased growth and operational capacity due to our transition to a Friendship Centre. Our board members are all members of the Indigenous community.
