Dear friends,
This week, the Board of Trustees accepted Lila’s resignation. Her last day
will be March 31, 2016.
I would like to thank Lila for her efforts over these past two years, and
her passion for our shared mission. Together, we wish her the best in her
future endeavors and accomplishments.
The Board of Trustees is meeting regularly to determine next steps. Our top
priority is to develop a clear transition plan that seeks to build
confidence with community and staff, appoint interim leadership, and begin
the search for a new Executive Director. We will continue working closely
together over the coming days, and will share an update next week.
This work will require extensive collaboration by the Board over the next
few weeks. Although we know you’ll have questions, it is likely we’ll be
very focused on planning the next steps. We appreciate your patience and
understanding during this time.
Patricio
