Karen Hunter has been named Executive Director of the Chatham Kent Women’s Centre (CKWC).
Hunter, a long time Lambton County resident with more than 30 years of experience in the family violence sector, replaces Hal Bushey whose contract with the CKWC expired in January.
Hunter graduated from Niagara College with a Social Service Worker diploma, earned a Bachelor of Social Sciences degree from the University of Windsor and a diploma from the Ontario Hospitals Association in Health Care Management.
Chatham Kent Women’s Centre Board of Directors president Darlene Smith said Hunter brings a strong blend of experience and enthusiasm to the job.
“We’re delighted to have Karen at the Women’s Centre,” she said. “Her leadership will help us continue to provide a safe haven and hope for the future for all those impacted by family violence.”
