[MHTF] (no subject)

[Karen Dufour]

Hi everyone,

I'm sorry we won't be having a July meeting as I would have preferred to
say this in person.  I wanted to let the Task Force know that I will be
leaving CSI next Friday, 7/13.  I will be returning to the NH mental
health system to become the Director of Long Term Care at Community
Partners in Dover.  The position combines my years of experience in a
number of programs and I am looking forward to it as my next career
challenge.

I have thoroughly enjoyed our monthly MHTF meetings, learning about each
other's agencies, the local resources, the network of providers, etc.
Most of all, I have enjoyed getting to know so many of you and I think
this region is fortunate to have such a group of dedicated,
knowledgeable, empathic people working on behalf of their neighbors.   

Jenny-Jo Holroyd, LCSW, will become the Team Leader of a consolidated,
blended team here in the Kittery office.  She will be able to attend
monthly meetings starting in September and can keep you updated on any
agency and statewide changes that may affect community mental health
services.

I wish you all the best and perhaps our paths will cross again.  Or
perhaps a future MHTF topic could be an alumni meeting!

Good luck to you all,

Karen Dufour
