History was made with the election of the first members of the permanent Board of Directors of the Canadian Administrator of VRS (CAV). The next steps involve completing the permanent Board. First, the elected ASL and LSQ Directors must choose the Third Deaf and Hard of Hearing (DHH) Director to build the Board of Directors. Following this, two Independent Directors will be chosen by the members of the Board.
On behalf of the CAV Board, it is with great pleasure that we announce the appointment of Mme. Suzanne Laforest as Third DHH Director, serving a one-year term.
We sincerely thank all other applicants for their time and interest in being part of this historical year for the Canadian Deaf community.
We would like to congratulate Mme. Suzanne Laforest on her appointment and welcome her to our team.
The Independent Directors will be determined soon.
Lisa Anderson-Kellett, elected to become ASL Director
Cynthia Benoit, elected to become LSQ Director
