The MYF is delighted to announce the appointment of former Executive Director, Alicia Glasgow Gentles to our Board of Directors, and to welcome Mitzian Turner as she takes up her appointment as our new Executive Director.
Mrs. Glasgow Gentles has given nearly 12 years of her life to the Foundation. 12 years of tireless commitment, creativity, and passion for young people across Jamaica. Through her steady leadership, she made The MYF thrive. She brought focus, order, and an unwavering belief in our mission – that every Jamaican young person deserves the opportunity to learn, to grow, and to succeed.
Mrs. Mitzian Turner joined The MYF in early 2023 as Director of Projects and Strategic Management, she has shown exceptional strategic vision, professionalism, and a quiet but firm determination that every project must deliver measurable results, coupled with the understanding that impact is not only about numbers, but about lives being changed.
The MultiCare Youth Foundation works with local and international partners to provide layered, pro-social interventions to empower vulnerable young men and women to avoid becoming involved with, or victims of crime and violence, and to go on to build a positive future. Over 200,000 young Jamaicans have benefited from these interventions, and The MYF is most recently facilitated training teachers and youth workers in Barbados to administer one of its programmes, in the first of a planned collaboration with other Caribbean nations.
We congratulate Mrs. Glasgow and Mrs. Turner on their new appointments and wish them every success!
