It is my pleasure to serve as the Board President for ANCFSAO, especially during such an exciting time. As ANCFSAO grows, so do the connections between Ontario’s Indigenous family well-being agencies, as well as our ability to work together towards common goals. Our Board has a new strategic plan and vision that will help the organization to successfully move into the future over the next several years, and I look forward to watching this vision become reality.
