On behalf of the Calgary and Area Child and Family Services Authority Board Co-Chairs:

It is with great excitement and sadness that we say farewell to Bonnie Johnston as Chief Executive Officer of the Calgary and Area Child and Family Services Authority (CFSA) as she takes on her new and exciting role as Chief Executive Officer of the Calgary Child Advocacy Centre (CAC).

Bonnie Johnston who has been recognized for exceptional advocacy and support of children and families, has dedicated her career to serving children, youth and families, first as a nurse and health administrator, and as CEO of the Calgary and Area CFSA for ten and a half years.

We feel honoured to have worked with Bonnie and very fortunate to have seen so many great accomplishments under her leadership since February 2002. Her commitment to collaboration and innovation has led to better lives for the children and families we serve.

We look forward to working with Bonnie in her new role with the Calgary CAC and her experience with partnerships, collaboration and innovation to improve outcomes for vulnerable children, youth and families.

Please join us in wishing Bonnie great success in her new role. Bonnie will step into her new position on November 26, 2012.

Pat Cochrane and John Phillips
