On June 26, 2024, CAH held its 46th Annual General Meeting (AGM) in the Collège Boréal auditorium. Rather than hold the AGM at Place Saint-Laurent, the Board of Directors and management team chose to demonstrate our commitment to the French-speaking community. In fact, we’ve been working with Collège Boréal for a long time, on issues such as training care attendants and recruiting francophones. We haven’t strayed far from our base, since the college is now in the La Distillerie district, 500 meters from our home.
At the end of the meeting, the members of the Board of Directors met behind closed doors and elected their executive committee, which is composed as follows: President, Marek Nesvabda; Vice-President, Joyce Irvine; Treasurer, Geneviève Grenier; Secretary, Diane Saint-Pierre. See our Board of Directors page for a complete list of directors and their profiles.
Fittingly, participants were treated to the 2024 Impact Report, presented jointly by Board Chairman Denis Frawley and CAH General Manager Barbara Ceccarelli, followed by the presentation of the results of the 2024 strategic planning, as well as the adoption of the amendment to by-law no. 1. Board Treasurer Geneviève Grenier then presented the financial statements for the year ending March 31, 2024. You can read CAH’s Impact Report 2024 on this link.
Two certificates were also presented to honorary members for their exceptional contributions to the organization’s activities. They were Sylvie Lavoie and Denis Frawley, outgoing Chairman of the Board.
After the meeting adjourned, the president and vice-president unveiled the corporation’s new founding member plaque, in the presence of the only living member among the twelve members: Pierre Gravel, a resident of Place Saint-Laurent. The plaque will be installed in the Place Saint-Laurent lobby.
