2024 CALL FOR NOMINATION
For CAH’s Honorary Member recognition!
In June 2022, CAH (Centres d’Accueil Héritage) Membership Policy was adopted and became effective immediately. Among other things, this policy provides for an Honorary Membership category.
In recognition of their contribution to CAH, the Board of Directors may now appoint lifetime honorary members. In addition to the founders of the corporation and past presidents, the Board of Directors may confer this distinction on any current or past member of CAH who has made an outstanding contribution to CAH.
Recognised honorary members are exempt from paying annual fees for life. They have the same voting rights as all other members and access to the same roles, responsibilities and privileges.
We encourage CAH voting members in good standing to nominate candidates for such recognition!
CAH will accept 2025 nominations submitted until December 1st, 2024. Nominated members will be announced during the AGM in June 2025.
DOWNLOAD the interactive form (in French) to nominate an honorary member. And send by clicking the Envoyer button on the interactive PDF.
You may also print the form and mail it to the attention of Jean Tété to the following address: CAH, 33 Hahn Place, Suite 104, Toronto (Ontario) M5A 4G2.
Nominations will be reviewed and recipients announced at the CAH Annual General Meeting in June.
Voting members make the difference!
Becoming a member of CAH is a way of helping us define CAH’s future directions, so that together, with our seniors, we can build a dynamic Francophone community in which aging is a pleasure.

Annual General Meeting 2024
The 2024 Annual General Meeting (AGM) took place on June 26, 2024 in the auditorium of Collège Boréal, located in Toronto’s historic Distillery District. It was an opportunity for CAH members to receive the 2024 Impact Report, meet the directors of the CAH Board of Directors (BOD) and learn about the achievements of the 2023-24 year. Several members took the opportunity to submit proposals for consideration by the Board. You can read the 2024 Impact Report at this link.
At the end of the meeting, the Board of Directors met behind closed doors and elected its 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.
