New Regional Leader for the Atlantic Region

We are pleased to announce that we have selected Coryn Stehouwer for the role of Regional Leader for the Atlantic region. Coryn has a wide range of professional experience, including in L’Arche. We felt she had what it takes to accompany the region’s communities in deepening their mission in the face of evolving needs and challenges. She will take up her new position on February 1. Jenn will ensure the transition throughout the month of February.

Coryn Stehouwer is a trained psychotherapist. She came to L’Arche as an Assistant and then House Leader in L’Arche Toronto and also served as Homes Coordinator in L’Arche Halifax. She is returning to L’Arche after several years working in restorative justice on the East Coast and a year abroad as a Regional Leader for an ecumenical organization in Northern England. Coryn hails from a small town in Ontario and has been living in Nova Scotia for the past 5 years. She looks forward to returning to L’Arche Canada and especially to join with this role in the Atlantic region.
