Board of Directors: Two Positions Filled

We recently issued a call to fill two positions on CDHA’s board of directors. An election was held for the position of board director from Ontario; we are pleased to announce that the successful candidate was Jennifer Turner. There was only one candidate for the board director position from Saskatchewan; elected by acclamation was Kaylen Anholt. These new directors will assume their roles on the board in October, following CDHA’s annual general meeting. Congratulations to Jennifer and Kaylen!
