🏆 Please join us in saying Congratulations to Chelsea Crance our Employee of the Year! 🥇

We appreciate your hard work & dedication!

Northpointe Council had our annual Holiday Party this past Friday, the 19th, and we honored our Employee of the Year at this get-together. The Employee of the Year nominations are submitted by staff and then chosen by Executive Staff.

This year, Chelsea Crance Our Program Director for the Prevention and Education Department won this award.

The Employee of the Year award is given each year to an individual who has gone above and beyond in their work, demonstrating exceptional dedication, teamwork, and impact. It’s more than just showing up—it’s about exceeding expectations, inspiring others, and making a meaningful difference in our organization. Each year, we ask for nominations from all of you, and the winner is selected based on your submissions.

The person receiving this award consistently goes above and beyond in their role. They approach every task with professionalism, creativity, and grace. Even in challenging situations, they remain calm, kind, and approachable—truly someone I’ve never seen in a bad mood. Their positive attitude is contagious, and their ability to take on new and demanding tasks with enthusiasm inspires everyone around them.

Their professionalism shines through in everything they do, and their creativity elevates every project they touch.

As the Program Director of Prevention and Education, this individual has strengthened our programs, supported her staff, and expanded services throughout Niagara County. Her leadership has helped secure multiple grants, grow the Prevention team, and build meaningful connections in schools and communities. She leads not only through expertise, but also through kindness, encouragement, and a genuine joy for the work she does.

In short, this person is a joy to work with, a true asset to our agency, and someone who embodies the very best of Northpointe Council.

It is our honor to announce that the Northpointe Council, Inc. Employee of the Year is… Chelsea Crance!

Please join me in congratulating Chelsea on this well-deserved recognition. Chelsea, thank you for your leadership, positivity, creativity, and the meaningful impact you make every single day. Congratulations!

💔 One impaired decision can change a life forever.

December is National Drunk & Impaired Driving Prevention Month, and we’re asking our community to commit to safer choices — for yourself and for the people who love you.

Make the call. Call the ride. Stay where you are.
Just don’t drive impaired.

Our community is worth protecting.

🚗 December is National Drunk & Impaired Driving Prevention Month.
Every decision behind the wheel matters — for you, your family, and our entire community.

Most crashes involving alcohol or drugs are 100% preventable.
Plan ahead. Make a safe choice. Save a life.

✨ Here at Northpointe Council & CHANGE encourage you to:
• Designate a sober driver
• Use a rideshare option
• Stay overnight if needed
• Never get in a car with someone who has been drinking or using

Together, we can keep our roads — and our loved ones — safe. Not here, Not Us. ❤️
