I am forever impressed by public speakers with confidence and grace.  Excellent address Jill.  Thank you.

Jill is a Clinical Supervisor for Frontenac Youth Services in Durham.  Helping Youth is both a passion and vocation for Jill.  She has earned her RSW designation in Ontario following her successful graduation from Mcgill with a Master's of Education and Bishops with a Bachelor's of Psychology.  She has genuine care for her clients: 12 to 18 year old youth in crisis.  She tirelessly works with her clients and their families with the darkness of mental and emotional health issues.  Jill introduced us to TAMI: Talking About Mental Illness of Durham.  www.TAMIdurham.ca.   A program whose goal is to STOMP OUT the STIGMA attach and associated with mental health issues.

Jill met Rotary through a vocational exchange program and we are pleased and proud to consider Jill a valuable member of our club and our community.  Jill is part of a wonderful family: husband Wally, children Kristina and Greg, and cockapoo Honey. 

Thanks again Jill, and congratulations on a noble vocation and an excellent presentation.
