    A large team of incredibly talented people work at inclusion powell river. We'd need several pages to introduce everyone and their exceptional contributions to the people we serve. While we'd love for you to meet everyone, below you can meet our leadership team.

    We encourage you to visit our head office on Alberni Street, Gerry Gray Place at the ARC Community Center, and the Jean Pike Center (located at the ARC) to meet more of our team and discover what we're up to.
