Inclusion Australia has some big news to share.
We have a new CEO!
Our CEO Catherine McAlpine has decided to step down after 6.5 years in her role.
Maeve Kennedy will become our new CEO on 20th April.
Maeve has been with Inclusion Australia for 4 years and has been our Deputy CEO for 2 years.
Catherine will stay working with Inclusion Australia as our Executive Director of Sector and Development.
This means Catherine will still help us to
- have good relationships with other organisations and government
- support our project work.
We think this will help us continue to make big and important changes for people with an intellectual disability and their families.
This is important because there are a lot of changes happening in Australia right now that affect people with an intellectual disability.
We want to say a big thank you to Catherine for all her hard work over the years to help build Inclusion Australia into the strong organisation it is today.
We are all excited and looking forward to seeing Inclusion Australia continue to grow as the national voice for people with an intellectual disability and their families.
