  3. Welcome home, Fred. How good it is for Arizona to have you back.

    Hopefully, we can have a sit down soon with Valley Interrfaith Project or the new Arizona Caregiver Coalition. Much has happened in the last few years to improve the lives of caregivers in our state.

  4. Welcome !

    Your honeymoon period will certainly be short with so many needs and the leadership role that SLHI is playing…

    But you are very fortunate to have your predecessor prepare SLHI for this next phase…particularly by building a professional staff of low profile innovators and quiet thought leaders…much of your successes will be tethered to the collaborative team spirit there !
