Chilliwack Community Services bids fond farewell to executive director Diane Janzen
CHILLIWACK — Chilliwack Community Services steadily grew during the tenure of executive director Diane Janzen the past six and a half years, bolstered by a staff of 107 people and approximately 500 volunteers.
In a Facebook post on Friday (Jan. 27), the non-profit organization that serves broad swaths of the Chilliwack community through 39 diverse programs bid a fond farewell to the sturdy leadership of Janzen, who will soon transition to her new role as chief administrative officer of Skwah First Nation in Chilliwack.
“It has been an honour and a privilege to work with Diane Janzen, executive director of CCS for the past 6 1/2 years,” said Luke Zacharias, president of the board of directors for CCS. “Diane has done an incredible job in her role as Executive Director. During the time that Diane has served as Executive Director, she has worked with the Board in a highly collaborative and effective manner, guiding and leading the organization and working with our dedicated group of 107 staff and 500 volunteers.”
CCS serves more than 12,500 people annually and one out of every 10 people in Chilliwack receives help and support from CCS, Zacharias said in a Facebook post Friday (Jan. 27). The organization is in a strong position moving forward.
