Thank you so much for this honor as AAHCC 2026 President and for the confidence you have placed in me. I am deeply grateful to the board, our dedicated volunteers, and most importantly, the seniors and families we serve.
I accept this role with humility and a strong sense of responsibility. Our organization exists for a simple but powerful reason: to ensure that older adults are treated with dignity, compassion, and respect, and that they have access to the support, connection, and care they deserve. This mission is more important now than ever.
I want to thank those who have served before me. Your leadership, commitment, and vision built a strong foundation. Because of your work, we are able to continue growing, adapting, and meeting the evolving needs of our senior community.
As President, my focus will be on collaboration, transparency, and impact. We will listen closely to the voices of our seniors, support our caregivers, and strengthen partnerships within our community. Together, we will continue to advocate for programs and services that promote independence, wellness, and quality of life.
No one accomplishes this work alone. I look forward to working side by side with this board, volunteers, and community partners. When we bring our talents, experiences, and compassion together, we can create meaningful change.
Thank you again for your trust. I am honored to serve, and I am excited about what we will accomplish together in the months and years ahead.
