The Takeover

My Vision & Goals

IPillar One

Rooted in Legacy.

My vision is to build on the Strong Legacy of our chapter by leading thoughtful, impactful, and mission-driven programming that honors our history while responding to the evolving needs of our community.
Goals to Honor Our Legacy
  • Build on our chapter's rich history of excellence by creating strong, well-executed programs that position us for greater recognition and awards
  • Honor our legacy through action by ensuring our programs continue to reflect our values, sisterhood, and commitment to service
  • For nearly 50 years, our chapter has dedicated service, compassion, and unwavering commitment to the Greater Harlem Nursing & Rehabilitation Center. I will work with the Nursing Home committee toward securing a permanent recognition within the facility—such as dedicating the Fourth Floor or the First Floor Garden Room in honor of NYAC's decades of service and commitment.

Leading in Service.

My vision for Leading in Service is positioning our chapter to serve with intention, consistency, and impact to support our catchment area through intentional programming, strategic partnerships and collaborative action.
Goals for Leading in Service

Standing on Business.

My vision for Standing on Business is to strengthen the structure behind our programming by creating clear processes and strong systems, facilitating smooth transitions and responsible planning. This will help to ensure our chapter delivers excellent, impactful programs with consistency and care. Our chapter's work should be organized, compliant, strategic, and effective!
Goals to Standing on Business

  • As a member of the Budget & Finance Committee, ensure workshops are conducted to support chairs with budgeting guidance and program development resources, including grants
  • Facilitate transition meetings to ensure continuity, clarity, and a smooth handoff of knowledge and responsibilities
  • Hold monthly office hours to offer consistent support, answer questions, and address challenges early
  • Promote accountability in planning, reporting, and program execution
  • Conduct outreach to engage membership to serve on or support at least one committee
