Julia,
I want to share my deep gratitude for your thoughtful leadership and your steadfast commitment to client and family engagement and partnership. Your efforts to address pediatric disability stigma have made a lasting difference—not only within Holland Bloorview, but far beyond its walls.
I often tell my kids that your impact truly stands out, because not many CEOs influence the lives of children who have never stepped foot in the building or received services from the organization. That speaks volumes about the reach and meaning of your work.
The girls still remember the day they had the chance to “take your job” as CEO—it was such a unique experience and genuinely inspired them to think about leadership in their own lives.
Sending heartfelt thanks and warm hugs,
Adrienne, Aaliyah & Amira Zarem
