Rounding out our day of gratitude on National , last but certainly least, Marie Jones!

Maree Jones is the Regional Manager overseeing all of the Resident Services Coordinators across NHT's portfolio. If you look up collaborator, leader and team player in the dictionary, you're likely to see Maree's name and face. Maree ensures that we as a team embody the values in which we measure our work. Maree is especially passionate about childhood development and leadership - and is always ready to remind the youth about her pro-basketball days. As a former Resident Services Coordinator, Maree leads by example - having gone through the challenges and joys of being frontline staff.

On this Service Coordinator Appreciation Day, we thank Maree for her leadership, collaboration and contribution to the Community Outreach and Impact team!

Henok understands that someone's environment does not define who they are as a person - and works alongside community leaders and partners alike to advance community development. Henok's model of shared power is a model of COI's anti-racism commitment - and he's not a bad fisherman either!
