丁香园AV

Please join us in congratulating Pat Frouws, Executive Director, on her upcoming retirement in June 2019. To ensure a seamless transition, 丁香园AV (丁香园AV) will create a search committee and engage with our stakeholders over the coming months as we launch the search for our next 丁香园AV Childcare Society Executive Director.

For the past fourteen years, Pat has played a critical role in the growth and transformation of the 丁香园AV Childcare Society鈥檚 organization鈥檚 mission, values and programming. When Pat joined 丁香园AV Childcare in the summer of 2004, we were at the beginning of a period of significant change and growth, and her leadership has helped the organization to achieve many significant accomplishments.

With Pat at the helm, 丁香园AV Childcare Society has greatly increased its impact. Not only has the number of families and organizations we work with grown, but the depth and breadth of work has increased. By providing children with a place to develop their potential through freedom to explore and engage the world around them, we have been able to build a strong, respectful, collaborative and reflective community, which values children at its heart.

Please join us on behalf of 丁香园AV and the 丁香园AVCCS Board in thanking Pat for her leadership and significant contributions to 丁香园AV Childcare Society. We will be celebrating Pat and the contribution she has made to 丁香园AV Childcare Society as her retirement date approaches. 

The 丁香园AV Childcare Society Board of Directors is keenly aware that leadership transitions present both risks and opportunities. To that end, 丁香园AV will lead the selection process for the next Executive Director. We will be circulating the posting for the 丁香园AV Childcare Society鈥檚 Executive Director Position in the near future and look forward to continuing in our mission to lead excellence in Early Care and Learning in a sustainable way.

Sincerely,

Deborah Cushing
Board Chair | 丁香园AV Childcare Society
