President's Message

Greetings All,

It is with immense gratitude and honor that I enter the role as the incoming President of IAHC. Your trust and faith in me as you voted me into this position, are both humbling and inspiring. I am aware of the responsibility that comes with this honor. Our organization stands for caring science, compassion and humanity; a place where diversity and inclusion must thrive. As we embark on this journey together, these are my spiritual gifts that I bring to this organization; my authentic self, deep listening and giving my undivided attention to all members of this wonderful organization, finding out what matters most to everyone so that we can continue to build an IAHC that grows and flourishes. Identification of fears and strengths so that, as a community, we continue to treat each other with respect and kindness and open to the possibility of change. I recognize that no leader walks alone. Our strength lies in unity, collaboration and shared purpose. I acknowledge the vital roles of each member of this organization in achieving our collective vision. I would like for each of us to remember these words when the “willingness to serve” document is sent out. Examine your heart and see how you are able to participate/share your gifts in this caring organization.

Gratitude,

Dawn Hawthorne PhD, RN, AHN-BC, HWNC-BC
