Committed volunteer as: alPHa Chair, NWHU Board of Health, Board of Points North Family Health Team, & self-proclaimed advocate for Ontario's GREAT Northwest!
Kicking off Workplace Health & Wellness Month with the Association of Local Public Health Agencies Lunch & Learn featuring Pete Bombaci from @GenWellCA & @LorettaRyan@PHAgencies. A powerful reminder: human connection is essential to our health, workplaces, and communities.
Today might be called Family Day, Louis Riel Day, Nova Scotia Heritage Day, or Islander Day — but across Canada, it’s about connection. 🇨🇦
Family (by blood or by choice), heritage, and a little mid-winter reset.
Staying cozy? Out on the hard water? However you spend it - ENJOY!
International Day of Women & Girls in Science recognizes those choosing understanding over fear and leadership over limits. I celebrate my daughter, niece, & the girls and women advancing science in classrooms, clinics, labs & communities.
