Meet Jacquelin Green: Executive Director

Tell us 3 things about you, the first 3 things that come to mind

1. I drink a lot of coffee!

2. I have 2 fabulous adult children, 2 wonderful teenagers , a lovely partner and 3 naughty cats.

3. I love to quilt!

How did you first become involved with YPSN?

Petra and a young parent interviewed me and hired me as a Family Support Worker in 2006. I went on to become the coordinator of Perinatal and Family Support Programs in 2009.

What is your role now?

I am the Executive Director of YPSN. I feel really lucky to work for such an amazing organization, and every day I am inspired by the people (parents, kids, staff, volunteers) who make up the YPSN community.
