President’s Message
I am your new President for the 2018-2020 term and I am honored to serve the members of this great association. Over the past 44 years of FHCACA there have been many talented and passionate leaders and I am most appreciative of the hard work they began on behalf of our hard-working members!
FHCACA is a professional Association that is dedicated to Helping Residents Live Life!
We are here to support you the members in education, networking and professional development on a State and District level to ensure that you receive what you need to continue our passion of Helping Residents Live Life!
Our executive Board Members are here to support you and they are all available to assist you as an Activity Professional. We are only a phone call away. Communication is the key to success of any organization and I will as your President have open communication to ensure you have what you need to be successful on a local level. I will be visiting Districts that are struggling to reorganize and become a vital active part of FHCACA. I will also support the Districts that are strong and with encouragement and support for the good work they are doing for our members.
I would like to take this opportunity to say Thank You to Nancy Hawk, (our most recent Professional Development Chair & District III President) for the wonderful educational opportunities that she and her committee afforded our membership for the past 2 years! I have appointed Nancy as our State Secretary (to complete the term vacated by my election as President). Thank You Nancy for accepting the State Secretary’s position! I know you will do a fantastic job as you have done in all the roles you have fulfilled for FHCACA, so far! Welcome to the Executive Board, Nancy!
I am very excited to welcome back to the Executive Board our Past President Patty Hughes. Patty has served FHCACA in District 8 as President, on the State level as Secretary, Region Rep & President. Her vast experience and dedication to FHCACA is a true asset to FHCACA!
Mary Spikes, State Treasurer has worked on FHCACA State Board for many years as President (2 terms), Vice President & Treasurer (several terms over the years). Mary is so passionate in her dedication to FHCACA that we are truly honored to have her serve as our State Treasurer. Thank You Mary for all that you continue to do for FHCACA!
Last but certainly not least I am so very proud to have our immediate Past President Jennifer Hayter serve FHCACA during my term. Her hard work and passion and dedication to you the members is evident in the wonderful work she continued during her term.
