We would like to thank everyone who joined us for our 2023 Annual Meeting!
It was great to recap a fantastic year and discuss what’s on the horizon for HAVEN. Thank you to all of our amazing speakers, especially our Board Member, Deb, who bravely shared her inspiring story last night. Thank you and congratulations, to our special guest Diannely Antigua. We are so excited about our collaboration through the Academy of American Poets as you start your 2023 Poet Laureate Fellowship. We’d like to thank our outgoing Board Members, Dave Terlemezian, Bill McQuillen, and Taraneh Azar for your years of service to HAVEN.
We’ve accomplished so much but still have lots more work to do. Finally, the biggest thank you is to our incredibly dedicated staff, board members, interns, and volunteers. We couldn’t continue to grow and support the community without you.
